Sobre o filme

Chakra is 14 and leads an exhausting life. He, his parents and his many siblings all work together in the rice fields of Cambodia. When a friend tells Chakra about the possibility of earning money in a factory, the boy decides to set off on his own. But on the way, he falls into the clutches of human traffickers and is sold into slave labor. On the Thai fishing boat where he now has to work, the captain’s regime is cruel. Violence, torture and even murder are the order of the day. Winner of the Prize of the Ecumenical Jury at Panorama section at Berlin International Film Festival.
