Starring Sokly Ny

Working in collaboration with veteran filmmaker Spencer Nakasako, Sokly Ny (a.k.a. “Don Bonus”), an eighteen-year-old Cambodian refugee growing up in public housing in the San Francisco Bay Area, documents his senior year of high school. What he captures, in intimate, diaristic camcorder footage, is a raw, personal portrait of everyday struggle and survival marked by a host of familial, economic, and academic challenges, offering a candid look at what it means to come of age as a young immigrant in America.
