Soldiers suffering from a mysterious sleeping sickness are transferred to a temporary hospital set up in an abandoned school. Jenjira volunteers to look after Itt, a handsome soldier who no one visits. She befriends Keng, a young medium who uses her powers to help relatives communicate with sleeping men. One day, Jenjira finds Itt's diary, covered with strange writings and sketches. Perhaps there's a connection between the enigmatic soldiers' syndrome and the mythical ancient site that lies beneath the school? Magic, healing, romance and dreams intertwine on Jenjira's fragile road to a deeper awareness of herself and the world around her.
