Documentary film Bong Thom (The Brother)
Heng lives with his close-knit, deeply Buddhist family in rural Cambodia, who work hard struggling as farmers. At six, he lost both his arms in a landmine explosion. Now, as a teenager hanging with the wrong crowd and with no future at the farm, his mother sends him to his older brother, Chana, who makes romantic music videos in the bustling city of Phnom Penh. Here, with a bossy brother, amid a So-Me, “wanna-be” culture, Heng must make it.
A film about a family living with the consequences of a war that ended decades ago.
