Three days before the fall of Phnom Penh, a small orphaned girl, Li-Da Men, is flown out of Cambodia. She is adopted by a British family and leads a privileged life while the country of her birth is returned to Year Zero by the murderous Khmer Rouge, whose Killing Fields claim two million innocent Cambodians.

Now, 26 years later, Li-Da returns to Cambodia in search of the truth - a search which, at every turn, forces Li-Da to re-examine not just her past and opinions, but also challenges the way in which the West regards Cambodia.

This is a film with a gripping personal narrative, with tears and triumph, with some humor, as well as disappointment. In the most painful and poignant way, this film shows life in Cambodia today - a country wrestling with the concepts of justice and truth in relation to its past, yet looking with hope and optimism towards the future.
