Three strangers watch a man die. None of them know how to live.
52 minSeason 1 • Episode 12
LatestSun, an autistic man obsessed with finding a means of ending his life but who never succeeds in carrying it out, has to put his plans of suicide on hold once again when Uncle Mok, the owner of a coffee shop and little library called Tiny Butterfly, dies suddenly in the street right before his eyes. He isn't alone, though. Yaimai, a financial planner who likes one-night stands, and Tor, a sixteen-year-old runaway, also happened to bear witness. Together, the three strangers give their account to the police and arrange the kinless man's funeral.
Acting
Bhumibhat Thavornsiri's autistic portrayal avoids every Hollywood cliché.
Writing
Dark humor about suicide that somehow validates staying alive.
Production
Tiny Butterfly coffee shop feels like a character you'll mourn.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Thai dramas rarely center autistic protagonists with this nuance; Sun's special interest in suicide methods mirrors how autistic special interests are often pathologized rather than understood as coping mechanisms.
Director Wirada Khuhavanta cast Jennis Oprasert (Yaimai) against her idol-group image from BNK48, deliberately subverting Thailand's 'good girl' entertainment culture with a sexually autonomous female lead.
