In this sociocultural documentary from 2004, director Patrice Leconte (Monsieur Hire) weaves an impressionistic, sensorial tapestry of existence in and around early 21st-Century Cambodia. Journeying through the country's farmlands, factories, streets and rural villages, camera-in-hand, Leconte glimpses the people and the elements of the landscape that make Cambodia so culturally specific, and gently contrasts modes of life found there. Etienne Perruchon composed the original score.
