Two Korean-American siblings return home for their father's funeral in rural Texas. The older sister leads a successful and stable life. The younger one, however, was addicted to meth, dropped out of college, and has built up debt trying to realise the dream of becoming a singer. When the two sisters arrive home, they learn that their father has left a rare antique fan worth more than half a million dollars "to the child who finds it first". This starts off a scramble that will forever change the lives of the two sisters.

Kanitha, a young, free-spirited Cambodian woman in her 20s, lives in modern-day Phnom Penh, working multiple jobs and choosing to live how she pleases. However, her daydreaming creates tension with her traditional mother, who wants a daughter that will settle down to get married, and Kanitha seems ambivalent to her father's deteriorating health. The family's struggle seems immutable, but Kanitha dreams an idea born from memories of her father. TURN LEFT TURN RIGHT is structured as an album, with tracks and sounds influencing the form. The film weaves Cambodian rock songs together with motifs of family, nature, and boundless imagination.
