Synopsis

Cirque du Cambodia follows the journey of two youths who live out every child’s fantasy – to run away from home and join the circus. But not just any circus – they dream of taking the stage with Cirque du Soleil, the largest theatrical company in the world. Their home, a poor village in the ancient, faraway Kingdom of Cambodia, makes their quest even more extraordinary.
