Ariel sits down with Jake Wachtel, writer and director of Karmalink, a science fiction film set in Cambodia that imagines a future where past lives are accessible through technology.

Conceived as a way to interrogate processes of neo-colonialism, and highlighting the alienating effects of technological progress, Karmalink is a mind-bending tale of reincarnation, artificial consciousness, and the search for enlightenment.
