Synopsis: KARMALINK is a Buddhist sci-fi mystery shot entirely in Cambodia. Directed by first-time feature film director Jake Wachtel, this Khmer-language feature deals with reincarnation, artificial consciousness, development and displacement of poor communities, and augmented reality.

Set in near-future Phnom Penh, the story follows a teenage boy who teams up with a street-smart girl from his neighborhood to untangle the mystery of his past-life dreams. What begins as a hunt for a Buddhist treasure soon leads to greater discoveries that will either end in digital enlightenment or a total loss of identity.
