Synopsis: A middle-class Parisian woman embarks on a quest to rescue the child her husband has abused from a Cambodian brothel and return her to her family in the jungle.
Mia (Ilaria Borrelli) a beautiful and successful Paris based photographer, bored by her bourgeois existence, flies out to Cambodia to surprise her timber trader husband Xavier (Philippe Caroit) in order for them to create the baby she longs for.
On arrival, Mia misses Xavier at the hotel. Seeing him being driven down the road, she quickly follows. But her hope for a romantic welcome are dashed when she finds herself in seedy part of town and spies her husband in a brothel having sex with an eleven year-old girl, Srey. Stunned, Mia collapses in a state of shock.
Mia, her world now turned upside down, resolves to rescue Srey and return her to her remote village and the family from whom she was abducted. With insufficient cash to buy Srey’s freedom, Mia strikes a repulsive bargain with Sanan the brothel owner and sacrifices her own body to the General, Sanan’s high-powered client, in order to liberate the little girl.
Xavier, puzzled by Mia disappearance and suspecting she may have relapsed into her past temptation of drugs, calls on the local police to initiate a search.
Mia steals an old truck and she and Srey embark on their long journey home. But soon after Mia discovers that Srey has stowed away Daa and Malin, two other young girls from the brothel. Torn by the sudden additional responsibility, Mia reluctantly agrees to return all three children to their separate villages spread wide across the Cambodian jungle. Realising Mia has taken three girls; an angry Sanan calls on the General to set the police to hunt them down and return them to face his violent retribution.
Fleeing for their lives, the girls embark on a perilous road trip to freedom filled with humour and beauty, but tainted with illness and the constant threat from their pursuers.
Mia and Srey form a tense but loving bond brought about unwittingly by the man they had both known. Each must draw on the other’s strengths and endure rejection to enable both to find peace and sanctuary.
Based on disturbing true-life events comes a story of sorrow, courage, hope and redemption.

Oh Dear GOD,
This is too sick. Please help Mia and protect her and those young children Mia helped to safety.
Please make all the pedophiles in Your World be disappeared. Amen
This story is the reality of Cambodia underage sex industry.
Thanks Gay King Sihanomi for releasing back pedophiles and introducing Cambodia as an underage sex industry.
I bet Gay King Sihanomi gets turned on watching white men getting hard. Thanks again.

Why do you blame this King who has no power? He is just a puppet King, and believed me what wrote in the paper before the King to sign, it has no story about that Russian guy as a pedophile. There're top ranking men in Hun Sen circle took the case for the King to sign, and a few men were well armed "Sign it or we'll shoot you".
This King asked to be resigned many times but he may stay until his Father dies, then he and his elderly mother will move to live in France. One thing he is now trying to do is building more shelters for his poor people.
Do you remember his young brother? He was poisoned by CPP/Yuon after he openly attacked them when he was in Phnom Penh.
And you should be glad that God may help Cambodia by giving Khmers a gay King. If he is not gay, the Yuon will force him to marry Yuon woman already.
I always thanks God for that matter.
Can we ask the U.S., EU Unions and NATO to send the hug nuclear bombs over Hanoi to kill those bastards who control Cambodia, trying to make Khmer leaders and followers of CPP commit the very bad things in the blind eyes of the gullible people.
Let's destroy Hanoi masters and leaders who are very very bad. We Khmer people can't stand this anymore.
10:50 AM. DOnt be stupid. The gay King is the reason he signed all illegal border treaties in 2005, giving the Vietnamese the right to claims our land.
If the Gay King Sihamoni cares about the country then he will ask outsiders for help or even the opposition, whome Sam Rainsy still loyal too. The Gay King shouldnt sign anything he cant read, he should know by now, dont say he knows nothing.
Gay King SIhanomi is as stupid as his traitor father. The country will be much better when his traitor father dies never apologizing for the 2 millions deaths.
If the Gay King doesn't want to sign, then Hun Sen cannot shoot him or poison him. Have you ever seen a picture of the Gay King Sihanouk in pictures looking like hes doesn't enjoying bending over like a dog when next to Hun Sen?
Stupid Gay King!
what is the benefit for criticising him?
It crude for youth and child that abuse by high government authority that suppose to protect and educate them. Instead those baster protect the baller n mafia, king pen. We pray and hope different orginzation group will come to rescues from devil, make society better place all Khmer people and the world to enjoy it. Buddha bless u all
