Synopsis

There are over 200 floating villages at Myanmar’s picturesque Inle Lake with farmers planting tomatoes in the floating gardens.

This seemingly romantic way of life is not all that easy; strong spring winds and heavy autumn rains have time and again destroyed the flimsy bamboo abodes.

How much more can people put up with waterlogged bedrooms and ever-leaking roofs? A plan is hatching in the mind of a young man.
