Tim "Sharky" Ward answers plainly when asked what he does for a living: he's a pimp. Born in New Zealand and raised in Australia, Ward now works in Pattaya, the Thai resort city built around sex tourism, and this profile follows him through the bars, streets, and negotiations that make up his working day. He talks openly to camera about how he recruits women, what he charges clients, and how he justifies the trade to himself, while the film's footage of Pattaya's nightlife supplies the backdrop of neon signs, go-go bars, and foreign tourists that his business depends on. Rather than moralizing, the film lets Ward's own words carry the account, occasionally cutting to street scenes that show the scale of the industry around him. It's a blunt, first-person look at a man who has built a career inside one of Southeast Asia's most scrutinized industries, and at the everyday mechanics of how that career actually operates.
