2015. Burma holds its first presidential election in decades. Many of the Burmese living abroad believe that time for change has finally come and that prosperity is at the end of the road. Xing-hong and Rong decide to return home, but a few days before leaving, Rong has an accident at work and dies, leaving Xing-hong alone to bring back his ashes. To his surprise, he arrives to his homeland to find out that many young people want to leave Burma, a country that seems now weirdly unfamiliar and distant to him. (Locarno Festival)
