Plot
[edit]The story of this film is adapted from a case in the civil code and a legal precedent during the reign of King Rama IV. It tells the story of Muen, the daughter of Ket and Nuen, who worked as a gardener in Bang Muang, Nonthaburi. Ket and Nuen gave Muen in marriage to Phu. When Muen refused to comply, her parents had Phu forcibly take her away. However, Muen escaped back to her home, only for Phu to abduct her again. This time, she ran away to stay with Rid, her lover. Phu then sued Rid, accusing him of kidnapping his wife. While the plaintiff and defendant were in court, Muen was detained in the prison of the Nonthaburi governor's residence and was subjected to various forms of abuse by Phamaran, who was bribed by Phu, in an attempt to force Muen to consent to become Phu’s wife. Muen eventually escaped from prison and submitted a petition to King Rama IV at the Suthaisawan Throne Hall on Sunday, December 10, 1865.
