Golden Slumbers

Golden Slumbers

More than 400 feature films were produced in Cambodia between 1960 and 1975, when the Khmer Rouge commenced its genocidal regime. By the end of Khmer Rouge rule in 1979 almost every film had been destroyed and most of Cambodia’s creative community had been executed.  Directed by Davy Chou, grandson of prolific producer Vann Chan, Golden Slumbers weaves rare archival footage around the illuminating and frequently heartbreaking testimony of surviving industry figures.  Winner Cinemanila Film Festival Best ASEAN Film.
