Laosan spends all his time smoking opium. For his community and his family, lost in the heart of the Laotian jungle, opium farming is the only way to survive. But opium is also the poison that puts men to sleep and kills their desires. Between hard work and laughter, doing nothing and opium, the documentary reveals the intimacy of Pingchang, his village, where he finds himself at a crossroad in his life
