Short description

A 5-year-old girl embarks on a harrowing quest for survival amid the sudden rise and terrifying reign of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia.

What's left behind the scenes

Producer Rithy Panh himself survived the Cambodian genocide.
The film was shot in 60 days, with a budget of around $24 million. At the time of its release, it was the most expensive film ever made in Cambodia.
In the scene where a prisoner is surrounded by people and begins to be beaten, the soldier is actually a genuine Khmer Rouge soldier.
