The true story of beloved Cambodian singer Ros Serey Sothea, whose
“Golden Voice” helped define Cambodia’s Golden Age of music
until her mysterious disappearance in the killing fields of Pol
Pot’s Khmer Rouge. Developed in partnership with Sothea’s
family. There is a saying in Cambodia: Music is the soul of a
nation. Perhaps no one embodied that spirit more than Ros Serey
Sothea, a young woman who would forever change the landscape of
Cambodian music as the Queen with the Golden Voice. From a humble
rice farmer to nationally recognized singer, Sothea’s success
captured the hearts of the Khmer people. Throughout her career, she
recorded over 500 songs, her signature angelic voice soaring over
genres from traditional ballads to psychedelic rock and beyond. As
the Cambodian civil war raged, Sothea's singing career continued to
flourish, even when she served in the army as one of the country's
first female paratroopers. After years of bloody conflict, the
communist Khmer Rouge seized control, murdering artists and
destroying their music, bringing Cambodia's golden age into a dark
era of silence. Sothea’s fate is unknown. Ros Serey Sothea's
golden voice lives on in the popular music of Cambodia to this very
day. Gone but not forgotten, her legacy continues to inspire. The
Golden Voice tells the story of Sothea’s life, developed
alongside the surviving family who knew her, and accompanied by an
interactive soundtrack.
