In Cambodia, former Khmer Rouge child soldier Aki Ra and his wife Hout help communities reclaim their land by clearing deadly leftover landmines. They adopt children injured by explosions and open a museum that gains global attention. As Aki Ra works to break free from his past in the genocidal regime and rebuild his family, he discovers that in a country still wrestling with its history, the past is never easily escaped.

Join us for a powerful and thought-provoking evening at the Little Venice Film Festival featuring a special screening of My Husband the Child Soldier, directed by Tom Peppiatt, followed by a live Q&A with the film’s director, Aki Ra and journalist Jon Swain.
