A new music video shot in Cambodia 50 years ago

Post by Izash »

Hello,
My name is Izhar Ashdot and I’m an Israeli musician.
As a child, I lived in Cambodia between 1967-69, while my father worked in the Israeli embassy in Phnom Penh.
I’ve recently discovered many Super-8 film reels that my father shot in Cambodia, mainly documenting my family’s trips across the country.
My memories became so vivid from watching this footage. They inspired me to compose this musical piece, simply titled Cambodia.
I edited the music video for this track using the footage that my late father shot 50 years ago.
I hope you enjoy this.
Izhar

Have you been back since? It's changed a tad.

Thank you all for the great responses!
I haven’t been to Cambodia in 49 years, so it’s probably changed a bit...
