Binchey, a traditional peasant farmer from Mondulkiri, was expelled from his land – like hundreds of thousands of farmers in Cambodia. He feels powerless in the face of foreign rubber tree plantations spreading across more and more parts of the country. Together with Binchey and other villagers, film director Mehdi Sahebi stages the story of this confiscation of the land and its ramifications.
«What’s striking about MIRR is the way in which Mehdi Sahebi transcribes the story of his protagonists, Cambodian Don Quixotes who become embroiled in a cruel game of power in which none of them know the rules.» Giorgia Del Don
