Cambodian Living Arts was founded by Arn Chorn-Pond, a Cambodian-American refugee featured in the Emmy nominated movie, THE FLUTE PLAYER. Arn founded the organization to support the music teachers who helped him survive the horrors of the Khmer Rouge. Cambodian Living Arts (CLA) supports the revival of Cambodian art forms, many of which were nearly lost under the Khmer Rouge, and inspires the contemporary expression of Cambodia’s arts. Tonite we are screening the CLA films GONGS ACROSS BORDERS and a documentation of the 3rd Cambodian Youth Arts Festival in Battambang. Also screening: SMOT by Neang Kavich about Khmer funeral music.
