Theater Play
Four women meet and confront their stories and aspirations. Sophea, 20 years-old. French-Cambodian second generation. Her obsession: find her roots and follow her mother’s path. Sovandara, 28 years-old, newcomer. She gave up her life to marry a French man she met in Cambodia. Mom, 36 years-old, survivor of the Khmer Rouge regime. Now divorced, she is determined to adopt a child in her country of origin. Metha, 52 years-old, first generation. She left before the fall of Phnom Penh. She has to go back to her native country to see her dying mother.
