Theary Seng on WKCV
Thanks to Theary Seng for her posting on Who Killed Chea Vichea?, which she calls a "brilliant, excellent, high-quality film." Theary is an author, columnist and former Center for Social Development director (web site) who has dedicated her life to peace and justice in Cambodia.
She writes:

In January 2004, I remember nonchalantly asking the driver of the law firm tasked to pick me up from the airport, "So, what's new here?""They killed Chea Vichea."I felt like lightning had struck me dead.

Cannes Independent Film Festival
Who Killed Chea Vichea? is going to Cannes — the Cannes Independent Film Festival (CIFF), that is. The independent festival takes place in Cannes alongside the main festival, but is not part of the main festival. So get excited...but not too excited.
Nonetheless, we're very pleased that filmgoers, buyers and distributors in Cannes will have a chance to see the film.
The screening will be sometime from May 12 to 23. Watch this space for details; they should be posted in early May.
