Sukwan's Island

About this title

In a remote village in Thailand, Sukwan, an 8-year-old autodidact, is building with her parents’ help a life-sized version of ‘Snowyaland’: an imaginary world she has conceived in her own mind. Against all odds, the modest family has been pursuing this colossal endeavour over the years while attempting to preserve Sukwan’s luxuriant inner world as she is soon approaching adolescence and its many temptations.
