American-born filmmaker Jake Wachtel began his career making short documentaries for nonprofits and social impact ventures working in the global south. In 2015, he moved to Cambodia to teach a year-long class in filmmaking to children as part of the Filmmakers Without Borders initiative. Phnom Penh became his home base for several years as he developed his first feature KARMALINK - Cambodia's first sci-fi movie - set in the community where he taught and produced with a majority Cambodian cast and crew, including his former students.
