- 국제환경영화경선
| Synopsis | Twice a year in Cambodia, the Tonle Sap River changes course, while the river of life flows in a perpetual cycle of death and rebirth and of creation and destruction. Working in an intimate, cinema verite style, filmmaker Kalyanee MAM, director of photography for the Oscar-winning documentary Inside Job, spent two years in her native homeland following three young Cambodians struggling to overcome the crushing effects of deforestation, overfishing, and overwhelming debt. A breathtaking and unprecedented journey from the remote, mountainous jungles and floating cities of the Cambodian countryside to the bustling garment factories of modern Phnom Penh, this film traces a remarkable and devastatingly beautiful story of a country torn between the rural present and an ominous industrial future. |
