Event Details

Dr. Ottara Kem never spoke of his Cambodian background. But on his deathbed, he expressed his desire to be buried in his homeland Cambodia. For his film-making daughter Marina Kem, it is the beginning of an intense, poetic, and conciliate journey.

BONNE NUIT PAPA (2014, 101 min) is a moving film about conciliation, connection, and farewell. It documents Marina Kem‘s search for her father’s story. A father who was strange to her in two regards; strange because of his Cambodian origins, strange because of his silence.

English language version.

Volunteers at the Palestine Red Crescent Society stay on the phone with a 6-year-old girl who gets trapped in a car in war-torn Gaza. Incorporating real-life elements that are as difficult to witness as they are impossible to forget, Kaouther Ben Hania’s “The Voice of Hind Rajab” (2024, 89 min) is a harrowing docudrama that makes a powerful appeal to humanity.

Event Details

Sex with a virgin girl can be worth as much as 1200 dollars to an Asian man. Srey Leak (16), Me Nea (17) and Cheata (17) are all victims of the virginity trade. They met as karaoke girls at the ‘Soul’ club in Phnom Penh.

Matthew Watson’s ‘The Girls Of Phnom Penh’ (2007, 60 mins) examines in intimate detail the complex relationship these girls have with their mothers, who sold them. The film also tells the story of the incredible friendship between Srey Leak, Minea, and Cheata. Together these girls are like sisters united against the world and all the horrors it throws at them. They face their brutal existence with courage and humor.

Their story is one of sisterhood through adversity; a friendship that offers each a very simple form of support as they struggle with balancing their childhood dreams and teenage expectations of life with the very adult lives they lead by night.

Soundtrack by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis!

Event Details

The place is Phnom Penh, 1979, immediately following the fall of Pol Pot. A grainy film shows a Czechoslovakian doctor walking through the debris around the deserted Central Market. Amid piles of shoes is a grandfather clock, evidently left standing in the street since the city had been evacuated four years earlier. He winds up the derelict artifact of a lost time and a chime rings out.

Viewers would be excused for believing they were watching genuine footage of Phnom Penh days after the city’s liberation. In fact, the Czechoslovakian-Cambodian production was made after the Vietnamese had occupied the city – but only just.

Forgotten for decades, the feature film NINE CIRCLES OF HELL (1988, 105 min) directed by Milan Muchna has finally been subtitled in English. Back then, it was the first Cambodian feature film screened at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival.

TOGETHER: THE LAST HOPE — PREMIERE

What if teenagers didn’t wait for solutions, but created their own? In Cambodia, 14 students aged 14–16 took on plastic pollution and community responsibility through an entirely student-driven theatre project.

From the first idea to the final performance and film adaptation, the students imagined, wrote, staged and produced the entire piece themselves. With guidance from facilitators—but with the vision, voice and ownership firmly in their hands—they turned a local challenge into a story about responsibility, teamwork and hope.

Created in collaboration with GIZ Cambodia, AUPP Liger Leadership Academy and Meta House Phnom Penh, Together: The Last Hope is more than a theatre production. It is a powerful experiment in youth leadership, creativity and collective action.

Join us for the premiere screening of the theatre recording!

Sunday, August 30

5 PM

Meta House Phnom Penh

The students and facilitators will be there. Come meet the young creators and discover what happens when young people are given the space to lead.

Together, there is hope.
