Petch, one of the young men of Nabua, composed and plays this song about his village written to commemorate the first shoot-out between the army and the farmer communists 43 years before. The song is combined with an image of Kamgiang, Petch’s friend, whose grandfather was killed by the soldiers in the field not far from his home.
