This is the true story of Anna, a Thai girl being raised in poverty in a poor area of Bangkok. This story is about real people and real events; it tells the tale of not only from rags to riches, but that of emotional trauma and how a beautiful child, and then woman, suffered throughout her life. Poverty such as Anna experienced is not an isolated event, it just happens to be one of which I became aware after meeting her and talking to her. As emails and messages flowed, the story of her life began to unravel.
At times, her recount of events is tragic; the feeling of despair and pain, merely because she was raised on the wrong side of the tracks, is as heartbreaking as it is pathetic. As her story began to unfold, it didn't feel real, it felt as though it was an imaginary tale, based on imaginary people... but the account and people are very real. It defied credibility. This is the story of Anna... a Thai girl.
