Quote:
The White Building, an iconic structure home to 493 families in Phnom Penh, faces demolition. In the building’s final days, Kavich Neang follows three families, including his own, as they pack belongings, share memories and anxieties, and eventually move out before the building’s total destruction.

The post Kavich Neang – Last Night I Saw You Smiling (2019) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

Director Rithy Panh turns his attention from Cambodia’s deadly past (last year’s S21: Khmer Rouge Killing Machine) to its uncertain present in this portrait of the legendary temples of Angkor and of the people paradoxically creating a future out of its ruins. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Angkor’s spectacular complexes provide a haunted stage for the laborers, peddlers, and holy men who exist within them. Workers piece together shards of statues and give voice to the stories carved upon the stones (if they can agree on what each image means, that is). Monks meditate in bullet-marked temples and narrate the histories of their gods. A farmer tours the murals with his fighting cock, revisiting the glories of old kings. For this “lost” city’s inhabitants, Angkor’s tales are never finished, its sculptures never silent. Intermingling their stories as subtly as a whisper, Panh creates a document of modern Cambodia, his camera carving out new legends with each story told.

The post Rithy Panh – Les gens d’Angkor AKA The People of Angkor (2004) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

Set in the newly-pacified Phnom Penh, Cambodia, this film is about the return to civilian life of Cambodian soldiers. Initially following three such returnees, the plot narrows to focus on Savannah (Narith Roeun), one ex-soldier trying to make sense of his new situation. He finds a home with his uncle, and they are the only remaining survivors of his once-large family. Despite its attraction and ubiquity, he decides not to turn to a life of petty crime, and instead tries to make his way as a kickboxer. Along the way he meets Srey Poeuv (Chea Lyda Chan), a 19 year-old bargirl who dreams of being rich and is ashamed of her status, in a dancehall. Initially, she resists his advances, but is swayed by the strength of his devotion and perseverance. His is the story of a damaged country trying vigorously to renew itself.

The post Rithy Panh – Rendez-vous avec Pol Pot AKA Meeting with Pol Pot (2024) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

The Missing Picture (French: L’image manquante) is a 2013 Cambodian-French documentary film directed by Rithy Panh about the Khmer Rouge. It was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival where it won the top prize. It was also screened in the World Cinema section at the 2013 Cinemanila International Film Festival where it won the Grand Jury Prize.

The film has been selected as the Cambodian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 86th Academy Awards, and was nominated.

Reviews:

Writer-director Rithy Panh uses clay figures, archival footage and his narration to recreate the atrocities Cambodia’s Khmer Rouge committed between 1975 and 1979.

It’s incredible to be able to do so much with so little in a film. Poetic and tragic, The Missing Picture is really quite brilliant. Against all odds, the images are beautiful, the old film footage tells its own story, and the clay models really work.

This documentary is a meticulously realised, painstaking, total labour of love and it shows. With such minimalism up there on screen, it ought to be hard work seeing this, but in reality it’s thoughtful, informative and above all haunting and moving.

The Missing Picture is Oscar nominated for the 2014 Best Foreign Language Film of the Year from Cambodia. Rithy Panh won the top prize in the Un Certain Regard Award section at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival and won the Best Documentary award at the 2013 Jerusalem Film Festival. The jury statement from there rightly said: ‘This is a riveting movie of the kind that has not been seen in years… The cinematic language is hauntingly poetic, never turning a horrifying history into the spectacle of itself.’

A film about people who have survived the irradiation of war and is recommended to those who believe they are immune to it. An extreme, necessary film that penetrates the eye and heart with unyielding force.
