Until the Orchid Blooms plot

When a dam was built on the Se San River in Cambodia, the village of Kbal Romeas was flooded. Many villagers, belonging to the Bunong minority, accepted compensation from the government and were given alternative housing elsewhere. About fifty families remained in the nearby forest to continue their traditional way of life. They built new huts, but living conditions, without even the most basic amenities, are difficult.
