This mini story is about the Krom Klon, the all female guards of the King of Siam (today's Thailand). They were well trained and excelled in the use of the lance. They even had training sessions, observed by the king, that could have fatal consequences.

Ep. 09 Miny Story: The Krom Klon aka the Siamese Elite Guards

Bringing Women Warriors into the narrative. Tina & Miriam, actresses and stage fighters, are passionate about stage fighting and the historical context of fights. Too many times they've been asked to perform as male (fighting) characters, so they thought: "There must have been more women throughout history who have fought." It turns out - there was. Women warriors are assumed to be historical anomalies, but we want to shed light on a different story. Whether she is a commander, leading the troops with high morale and working on strategy and tactics, fighting at the front with a sword in her hand, or rebelling from captivity, she is a warrior in her own right. Producer: Thea Kastberg Theme music: Emma Cairo.
