Incoming Editorial·Reviewed July 6, 2026

In industrial Yangon, young factory worker San Kyi dreams of returning to her native village. Her relationship with co-worker Theint Theint Oo evolves from closeness to growing distance, revealing tensions between their expectations and life prospects. Amid exhausting labour, social repression, and economic uncertainty, both women seek escape and intimacy. San faces family pressure, emotional confusion, and a deep yearning for a life of dignity. The film delicately portrays female friendship and the fragile balance between intimacy, longing for change, and the social realities of contemporary Myanmar.
