LE SOMMEIL D'OR (GOLDEN SLUMBERS)
Nearly 400 films were made in Phnom Penh, Cambodia between 1960 and 1975, only 30 of which survive today. The Khmer Rouge burnt them or allowed them to decay along with many of the country’s studios and cinemas. Most of those involved in the film industry became victims of the genocide. Director Davy Chou, the grandson of one of the most important film producers of the "Golden Age" of Cambodian cinema, uses his film to reconstruct the country’s cinematographic legacy. He goes about his work like an archaeologist, recognizing how difficult it is to speak to survivors about a life’s work destroyed but not forgotten.
