About the film

In the borderlands of Thailand’s Golden Triangle, a rugged region known for its drug smuggling and hill tribes, one man devotes himself to the welfare of the region’s poorest children.

A former Thai boxer, turned Buddhist monk, Phra Khru Bah Neua Chai Kositto travels widely
on horseback, fearlessly dispensing prayers, health care, education and tough love to villagers far from the protection and support of the outside world. With his Golden Horse Temple he's built an orphanage, school and clinic — a haven for the children of the region, who see him as a shaman, father figure and coach.
