Faiyen: Thai folk band that ran for their lives - BBC Stories

The Thai folk band, Faiyen, is seeking asylum in France, claiming it's dangerous for them to return home. The band, that uses music to criticise the monarchy and the military, fled to neighbouring Laos in 2014 after the military coup. There they faced death threats and six other activists in exile with them went missing, two were later found dead in Mekong River. BBC Thai follows the bands journey - fleeing from the land of the smiles.

The idea is to tackle issues which concern and impact this group of people. So think about anything from race and identity to mental health, money and much more.
