Synopsis

Bamboo & Butterflies is the true story of a Cambodian family's odyssey to America and the challenges and obstacles they encounter in their struggle to assimilate. After suffering hardship and deprivation under the Khmer Rouge's regime, Eun Bun's four daughters, along with their husbands and children, arrive in California with no money and no idea what their adopted country would really be like. Humorous and poignant, their first experiences in America offer a unique perspective on what it is like to be a stranger in a strange land.
