Many outsiders have a perception of Thailand as tolerating a visible transgender population, with transgender beauty pageants a regular occurrence in notorious 'sexpat' resort towns such as Pattaya. Aimed at tourists, the displays are very different from attitudes in the rural hinterlands, from where transsexuals often escape to the big cities to avoid prejudice.

I haven't read much about this but from what I have read I'd say I agree. Not to say every movie of this style and topic should be fluffy clouds and kittens. It hints at a transgender parent that possibly influences their children to enter the sex industry. I haven't seen the movie sure but from that I know I'd rather not.
