The film shows the young boy coughing and the group laughing. He is encouraged to blow smoke in his mother’s mouth and she does the same to him. She then scolds him for not handling the cigarette right. The 32-year-old mother has now been charged with child abuse and breaking Swedish alcohol laws.

Thaipusam (Tamil: தைப்பூசம், Taippūcam ?) is a Hindu festival celebrated mostly by the Tamil community on the full moon in the Tamil month of Thai (January/February
) The word Thaipusam is derived from the month name Thai and Pusam, which refers to a star that is at its highest point during the festival. The festival commemorates the occasion when Parvati gave Murugan a vel "spear" so he could vanquish the evil demon Soorapadam.
