Scott, a French priest who has become an accidental 'vampire-in-transition', seeks help from a modern day doctor to somehow avoid impending death. Critical to his cure would be to break his supernatural bond with Luara, a much-feared succubus in Malay lore and locally known as a 'pontianak'. Incorporating a thriller of an adventure set on the Malayan peninsula in the 1809-10 period, amid the rise of Europe's colonialism drive, this is their shared story. Mature content advisory: Sexual violence, religious themes and historical politics.
