Cambodia saw the birth of a new musical genre during the 60’s, with its origins at the crossroads of Western musical influences and their own traditional music. It was extremely popular at the time but, like so many other cultural symbols, suffered the devastating effects of the ideological purification led by the dictatorship. It was nearly eradicated, but this film is a search for the collective memory of this forgotten rock and roll, closely linked to the events that shaped the country.
