Synopsis

In the propaganda war against the Communist Party of Malaya (CPM), much was made of the fact that the party comprised ethnic Chinese who adopted an atheistic political philosophy. This tactic proved effective as the country was mainly Malay and Muslim. This documentary is a portrait of life in a tranquil village in South Thailand, complete with a mosque, where the retired members live in exile. Recollections of the decades-long guerilla warfare are interspersed with a fictional Thai radio drama.
