The film is about the meeting of two cultures -- "East meets West" -- before World War I, when the airplanes were made out of wood, and the pilots were made out of iron. It is a film about believing in the power of your dream and it is based on fact that Siam sent over 70 pilots with their Expeditionary Forces to support the allies in France during World War I.
