http://www.camerado.com

Kampot, CAMBODIA – The 4th edition of CamboFest: Film and Video Festival of Cambodia, Cambodia’s first film festival since the end of the Khmer Rouge era, will be held March 1-9 in Kampot, Cambodia, featuring new international films from around the world screening alongside local Cambodian movies.

Programs will include feature and short documentaries, long and short form fiction films, animation, a Local Showcase,  a Universal Language program (movies with little or no dialogue), and social issue and edutainment movies co-programmed in broad-themed sections.

In keeping with CamboFest’s mission of utilizing vintage and alternative spaces wherever possible, he 4th CamboFest will be held once again at the vintage ‘Royal’ cinema house in Kampot, on Cambodia’s south coast.

The ‘Royal’ was re-discovered and revived by CamboFest staff for the 2009 festival edition, after remaining unused as a cinema venue since 1989.  The old cinema house had been a popular local attraction in Kampot since the 1950’s, exhibiting a variety of Indian, Chinese, and local movies until being shuttered by the Khmer Rouge takeover of Cambodia in 1975.

The 4th edition of CamboFest will support the increased collaboration and training of Cambodian partners, including the Kampot-based Youth Association for Human Resource Development (YAHRD) and other principals, in order to transition the festival into a more sustainable event in the future.

Since launching in 2007, CamboFest has inspired a number of other film festival events in Cambodia and internationally, and is the regional ‘friendship’ festival of the Bangkok IndieFest in Thailand. A selection of films from the 4th edition of CamboFest will be featured at the next Bangkok IndieFest, forming the basis of an anticipated ASEAN-wide Southeast Asia Filmmaker’s program to launch in 2012.

As a privately funded, grass roots, independent film festival operating in a very challenging developing environment, CamboFest welcomes the support of contributors around the world who pitch in each year to make the festival happen.

501 (c) 3 year-end tax deductible contributions to CamboFest can be made here; normal direct contributions from global supporters are welcomed here.

Interested contributors, sponsors, volunteers and media please contact CamboFest at info@cambofest.com / www.cambofest.com with inquiries.
