Sinopsis
In Ratanakiri, a province in the northeast of Cambodia, Khlek, an 11-year-old boy, lives on the rubber plantation where his parents work. Coming from the Kreung ethnic minority, they are tappers. But where does this huge, charred tree lying on the ground in the middle of the plantation come from? The answer that Khlek finds is much more complex than it seems.

Director's Biography
Biografi Sutradara
Rotha Moeng
Rotha Moeng, a Franco-Cambodian artist, is a director, producer, and gallery owner who divides his time between Paris and Phnom Penh. While completing his directorial debut in Banlung, Ratanakiri province, two films he produced and co-produced were released in Europe. "The Sound of the Night," directed by Chandaro Sok and Kong Kea Vann, while "White Building," a feature film by Kavich Neang.
Rotha Moeng's life is a testament to Cambodia's ongoing resurgence since the fall of the Khmer Rouge regime 44 years ago. As a child under Pol Pot's dictatorship, he lacked access to art, music, cinema, and songs until his family sought refuge in Thailand. It was in a refugee camp where he experienced his first film, "Poah Keng Kang," sparking an enduring sense of wonder.
