In a remote Iu Mien village in the mountains of northern Laos, Kao and Mey come of age in a community where life is closely tied to the forests and hills that surround them. Like the generations before them, they hope to carry on the traditions and simple way of life passed down by their parents and grandparents.

Alongside their closest friends, Pao and Cheng, the young couple spend their days tending mountain fields and wandering the surrounding forests for food and game, living by the quiet rhythms of village life. In the mountains they know so well, the future seems certain, and the bonds of family and friendship feel unbreakable. But when communist soldiers arrive, fear spreads through the hilltribe community, and the bonds that once held the village together begin to unravel.

As loyalties are tested and their future grows uncertain, Kao and Mey must face difficult choices about survival and the meaning of home.

Inspired by real events during the Laotian Civil War, Stars Over the Mekong is a story of love, friendship, and resilience set against one of the most turbulent chapters in Southeast Asian history.
