In modern-day Cambodia, young Hai visits a desolate cinema harbouring memories from his youth. There, he meets Thida, a young woman who reveals herself to be the "Guardian Angel" of the cinema. Its imminent demolition coincides with her reincarnation, and she can either remain an ethereal spirit in the cinema or be reborn with no past memories, which include her growing bond with Hai and the tragedies that befell her and her beloved Cambodia. Developed as part of the Venice Film Festival's emerging filmmakers programme, this genuinely charming and moving meditation on cinema, humanity and sombre history marks writer-director Polen Ly as an Asia talent to watch.
