Event Description

Twice a year in Cambodia, the Tonle Sap River changes course, while life for the Cambodian people continues to flow in a perpetual cycle of death and rebirth and of creation and destruction. Working in an intimate, verité style, filmmaker Kalyanee Mam spent two years in her native homeland following three young Cambodians as they struggled to overcome the crushing effects of deforestation, overfishing, and overwhelming debt.

The documentary A RIVER CHANGES COURSE (2012, 83min) traces a devastating and beautiful story of an ancient culture ravaged by globalization.
Produced by DC-CAM.
