The film is an ode to the pioneering Thai performance artist Paisan Plienbanchang who passed away in July 2015. In February 2015, Nizam and fellow artists Jeremy Hiah, Dennis Tan and Han Xiaohan traveled to the Mekong River to join their friend Paisan on a community art project.
On the trip, they found out that Paisan is suffering from late-stage pancreatic cancer. To Paisan is a documentation of a spontaneous performance they did at a site known as the 9000 Holes and a moving farewell to a friend.
