Mae Nuan on Camera

Jack's workshop on the canal in Thonburi, Tee behind the camera and Ton holding the light: tell the viewers where we are; viewers, this is my workshop; this is Mae Nuan, new ribs; say what a long-tail is; the engine on a long pole, that's the tail; this is the old engine, it still runs; this is Ton, he talks more than the engine; cut, keep the engine, cut Ton: the voice-over's way of saying this is that.
