A young girl has bought food. On her way home, she must use an airsoft machine gun to avoid being attacked and the food stolen by the monkeys.

The city of Lop Buri in Thailand is home to hundreds of macaques. The locals consider these monkeys to be disciples of the Hindu god Hanuman.

The macaque population in Lop Buri is constantly growing, and this leads to an odd coexistence between man and monkey. While some people love them, others fear or even hate them.
