Tonight we are going to launch KON (Khmer for film), a magazine on the cinema of Cambodia, edited by students from the Department of Media and Communication at the Royal University of Phnom Penh. The magazine deals both with the glorious past and the less glorious present of the film industry in Cambodia. It features an All-Star-Cast, including Dy Saveth, Ly Bun Yim, Mao Ayuth, Yvon Hem, Tea Lim Kun, Svay Socheata, Poan Phoung Bopha, Min Sitha, Chea Vannarith, Rithy Pan, and His Majesty King Father Norodom Sihanouk. We will take you on a tour of the Khmer cinema history and screen clips from classic movies as well as other hard-to-find material. This is event is made possible with kind support of Bophana Audiovisual Resource Center.
