Bound explores physical struggle as an emotional metaphor, transforming wrestling into a meditation on the unspoken tensions that bind us. It uncovers the fragile balance between masculinity and connection, revealing how struggle itself can become a form of closeness.

Last year, we shot my passion project on a single roll of film. It was about internal struggle through physical sport, something I still remember deeply from when I used to play scholar football back in Thailand. The project was inspired by Charles Fréger’s book 2 Nelson.
Thank you to everyone who trusted me and this project.
