Thailand. In a future ravaged by a virus where cows are almost extinct, Phop, a wealthy farmer, owns the last ox from Southeast Asia. His ox is highly sought-after for artificial insemination, but he is getting old and difficult to donate his semen. Phop then relies on the gestural genius of Jon, a poor worker who nevertheless has a gift for extracting sperm from beef thanks to his unique masturbation technique. Watching Jon masturbate his beef excites Phop, who wants him to feel that pleasure too. But Jon is married and very loyal.
