F.Hilaire (2015)

Francois Touvenet Hilaire was a French Catholic priest who traveled to Thailand in the 1900s. Believing that God led him to a faraway land of different languages and cultures, he began to merge his knowledge of the world he left with the new one, mastering Thai and writing an important textbook on Thai language learning for young school children. The book, called Darunsuksa, is still used in Thailand today. Phongsathorn is a present-day teacher who, in an attempt to upgrade his teaching salary, is doing a master’s degree in literature. Choosing to research Hilaire’s life for his thesis, he learns more and more about Hilaire and finds that his way of thinking has changed. (Source: ContentThailand.com) Edit Translation
