A film by Chris Marker, 1977, 89 min, English Version
1967-1977: crucial years of world history.
“During these ten years, a number of men and forces — sometimes more instinctive than organized — have tried to play the game on their behalf, even by turning the pieces upside down. All failed on the fields they had chosen. However this is by them passing by that the political component parts of our time were deeply transformed. This film only pretends to highlight some steps of this transformation.” Chris Marker
Directed by Norodom Sihanouk, 1966, 130 min, Khmer version
During the occasion of a Khmer popular dance performance, General Rithy, because of her beauty, falls in love with Kantha, a royal ballet star who plays the role of an Apsara on the wall of Angkor temple.
