Event Details

Australian documentary filmmaker Jim Gerrand first arrived in Cambodia by canoe in 1967 with only a monkey for company – a voyage that became the basis for his first documentary, Mekong Downstream. Gerrand has returned frequently since, producing several films about the country’s politics and history. THE PRINCE AND THE PROPHECY (1988, 78 mkin) explores the years of Prince Norodom Sihanouk’s rule, his juggle for peace, his charisma and contradictions. CAMBODIA: KAMPUCHEA (1988, 57 min) exposes the nightmare of the revolution unleashed by Pol Pot’s Khmer Rouge after their victory in 1975.
