Together with Ang Jolie she wrote a script for a new project, and is also preparing to lead the shooting of the picture and start producing it.

Lung Ang was five years old when the Khmer Rouge came to power in Cambodia in 1975. From that moment on, a period of terror and genocide began, which claimed the lives of two million inhabitants. The girl was taken from her home in Phnom Penh and sent to a military training camp for orphans, while her six brothers and sisters were sent to labor camps.
