This is the story of Anna Leonowens, the English schoolteacher who came to Siam in the 1860s to teach the children of King Mongkut. She becomes involved in his affairs, from the tragic plight of a young concubine to trying to forge an alliance with Britain to a war with Burma that is orchestrated by Britain. In the meantime, a subtle romance develops between them.

King Mongkut: I never danced with an Englishwoman before, mem.::Anna Leonowens: Nor I with a king.
[last lines]::King Chulalongkorn: It is always surprising how small a part of life is taken up by meaningful moments. Most often they are over before they start although they cast a light on the future and make the person who originated them unforgettable. Anna had shined such a light on Siam.
King Mongkut: [to Anna] When a woman who has much to say says nothing, her silence can be deafening.
Louis Leonowens: [to Anna] Mother, what's a concubine?
Anna Leonowens: [to King Mongkut] Life is... precious, especially if you're a Christian and only allowed to have one.
Prince Chulalongkorn: Son of teacher is forgetting I am son of King.::Louis Leonowens: Son of teacher couldn't care less.::Prince Chulalongkorn: You will sit somewhere else!::Louis Leonowens: I will not!::Anna Leonowens: Louis, remember what I told you.::Louis Leonowens: I'm sorry Mother, but he started it.::Prince Chulalongkorn: In my country, man never tell a woman he is sorry about anything... ever! If you had father, you would know that.::Louis Leonowens: You don't have a father! You have a map!::[Louis pushes the prince]::Louis Leonowens: Louis!::Prince Chulalongkorn: It is forbidden to touch royalty!::Louis Leonowens: I didn't touch you!- I shoved you! Why don't you get one of your servants to shove me back?
Louis Leonowens: Moonshee, why does the king have so many wives?::Moonshee, Leonowens' Indian Servant: That is an excellent question. For your mother
Tuptim: [to Anna] If love was a choice, who would ever choose such exquisite pain?
Tuptim: I remember my first rice festival. People come from everywhere to see king. He bless all crops, and it begin to rain. I think he was a God.::Anna Leonowens: And now?::Tuptim: He is also a man.
Anna Leonowens: I would like to know why... , if science can unravel something as beautiful as music... , why it cannot posit a solution for a schoolteacher and a king.::King Mongkut: The manner in which people might understand such new possibilities is also process of evolution.::Anna Leonowens: Everything in Siam has it's own time.
Plot
Eleven episodes portray different encounters in a large city during the course of a single night towards the end of the millennium. A young man wants to stop living together with a young woman because he believes that they no longer have anything to say to each other. The young woman goes to visit her mother, an elderly woman. She lives with an old lesbian who meets her homeless brother. She asks him to forgive her for having seduced his wife all those years ago, but the brother pretends not to know who she is. A young boy attacks the homeless man. At first he tells him about his wild nights, then he knocks him to the ground and steals the old man's ring. At home the young boy has a bath and asks his father to join him in the tub. The boy's father has a girlfriend, a young woman. He intends to end their relationship... Eleven interlocking scenes that involve two characters, one of whom carries forward into the next scene, until the chain comes full circle.

Song at the end: I would surrender to whoever who would take me
La mente non si spiega,
tu chiamalo destino oppure caos
Ma il cuore non si piega
al desiderio che desidera
I sogni se ci credi, non sono che realtà in anticipo
L'avresti detto ieri,
che oggi siamo qua, con tutta l'anima
Noi adesso, due emozioni che si danno pace
e il permesso di conoscersi profondamente
Con le braccia aperte nude ad accoglierci
Solo chi ha paura mette limiti
Orgogliosamente noi
Orgogliosamente noi
Le affinità elettive,
spalancano orizzonti un po' più in à
E il cuore sopravvive ad un'onda anomala
che scuote l'anima
Noi adesso, due emozioni che si danno pace
e il permesso di conoscersi profondamente
Con le braccia aperte nude ad accoglierci
Solo chi ha paura mette limiti
Orgogliosamente noi
Orgogliosamente noi
Il filo che ci lega, tu chiamalo destino, oppure noi
Noi adesso, due emozioni che si danno pace,
e il permesso di conoscersi profondamente
Con le braccia aperte nude ad accoglierci
Solo chi ha paura mette limiti....
Proverò ad odiarti
cancellerò il tuo nome
Cerco di scordarti
ancora non so come
Comprerò un biglietto
prendo tutto e vado via
valigia vuota occhi nuovi con la mia follia
volerò
lontano da te, dalle incertezze, dal futuro, la noia, l'abbandono, il lavoro
volerò
una nuova città e così respiro
di noi di noi di noi
di noi che ne sai
quante volte io ti parlo mentre sogno sempre noi
di noi di noi di noi
di noi che ne sai
quanto fiato respiriamo mentre fingo che ci sei
Prenderò un quaderno
riscriverò il tuo nome
cerco un pennarello
un evidenziatore
Brilli bene ora
In mezzo al foglio bianco sei
solo inchiostro spento senza me che faccio luce
volerò
lontano da te, dalle incertezze, dal futuro, la noia, l'abbandono, il lavoro
volerò
una nuova città e così respiro
di noi di noi di noi
di noi che ne sai
quante volte io ti parlo mentre sogno sempre noi
di noi di noi di noi
di noi che ne sai
quanto fiato respiriamo mentre fingo che ci sei
Tra le mie dita manchi dove sei
Galleggi tra i mie sogni
di noi di noi di noi
di noi che ne sai
in questa bolla di sapone io difendo solo noi
