My Friend, Bora

Gratitude demands a sacrifice.

Directed by Sana Oung Ty

Kosal is 15. He cares for his sick mother alone in a Phnom Penh slum, hiding a dark secret that rules his life. A kid forced into adulthood too early. Then he meets Bora. Carefree, everything Kosal isn’t allowed to be. For the first time, Kosal tastes what being a normal kid feels like. But when Bora gets too close to the truth, Kosal faces an impossible choice. The mother he’s bound to. Or his first real friend.
