Why Cambodia?
Cambodia Today
Cambodia, a historical film country
Cambodia is a movie country by tradition, particularly thanks to its “King Cinematographer”, HM Norodom Sihanouk, who produced more than 30 movies since 1965, to the stunning Golden Age in the 60’s and the director Rithy Panh whose films are well known and awarded several times in prestigious festivals such as Cannes (People of the Rice Fields, S 21, the Burnt Theater, The Missing Picture (Oscar nominated in 2013?).
Cambodia offers a diversity of potential film locations: its marvelous rice field landscapes; the famous and incredible Angkor temples (World Heritage); the genuinely authentic charm of its towns; the riverbanks of the Tonle Sap and the Mekong, or places still unknown: pagodas and Angkorian temples whose magic provides the inspiration for new stories.
