Same Same But Different
Are you ready for the love of your life in your early twenties?
Directed by Detlev Buck
Produced by NDR, Boje Buck Produktion GmbH
A tender yet sobering cross-cultural love story grounded in real tragedy, exploring how privilege and circumstance shape relationships and moral responsibility.
Based on the true story of Benjamin Prufer and Sreykeo Solvan. The unexpected and uncertain love story of Sreykeo, a 21 year old bar girl in Phnom Penh and Ben, a young German student traveling to Cambodia on a post graduation summer trip. When Ben returns home to Germany he discovers that Sreyko is sick and he takes on the responsibility to save her. On the way he discovers a world where not everyone is dealt the same cards and where motivations are not always pure.
