Cambodia International Film Festival kicks off

[Soi Dog]

"Don't Think I've Forgotten", a movie about the "golden age" of Cambodian pop music looks particularly interesting.



So does "The Gate", about the fascinating true story of the only Westerner to survive his ordeal at S-21 and interactions with Duch.

Festival turns the lens on local film talent

The fifth annual Cambodian International Film Festival features the largest-ever selection of films made in Cambodia – both foreign and local productions

Organised by the Cambodian Film Commission and Bophana Centre, this year’s Cambodian International Film Festival will bring 80 films to screens at six venues in the coming week. The big drawcards will be the Cambodian premiere of Kulikar Sotho’s debut film The Last Reel along with the first public screenings of the French-Cambodian production of The Gate, introducing much-hyped new Cambodian actor Phoeung Kompheak, and Don’t Think I’ve Forgotten, which documents Cambodia’s “golden age” of rock ‘n’ roll. The program also includes mini-festivals of South Korean cinema, French action flicks, contemporary Southeast Asian films and documentaries. All the films are free entry.
