Buffalo Boy
Kim is 15; his father and step-mother have two buffalo, their lifeline as subsistence rice farmers. During the rainy season, there's no grass and the buffalo are starving. Kim volunteers to take the beasts inland to find food. On this coming-of-age journey, Kim sees men mistreat women, men fight with men, and French taxes rob the poor. He works for Lap, a buffalo herder whose past is entangled with Kim's parents, and he makes friends who will lead him to his place in the world.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Buffalo Boy has mixed reviews with a rating of 6.5/10. Good for a relaxed evening without high expectations.
Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.
A 2004 film from an era before CGI overload, with real performances that still hit hard. Best for: viewers looking to try something new without being too demanding.
