Far Away Close To You (2026)
Seventeen-year-old Sota from the vibrant Phnom Penh, is sent to a quiet rural town to finish high school. Struggling to fit in, she feels adrift, until she meets Viphu, a kind-hearted boy whose determination to uplift his community sparks a bond neither expected. Together they discover friendship and love. But as graduation nears, ambition and circumstance begin to pull them apart. Misunderstandings deepen, silence grows, and their paths diverge. Yet even as distance separates them, a question lingers: is their story truly over, or only waiting to begin again?
