In-person film screening

Film - A River Changes Course: In this stunningly shot verite portrait captured over a perios of two years, filmmaker Kalyanee Mam achieves profound intimacy with three Cambodian families struggling to maintain their traditional way of life as the modern world closes in around them.

Film - Lost Word: As Singapore dredges sand out from beneath Cambodia's mangrove forests, an ecosystem, a communal way of life, and one woman's relationship to her beloved home are faced with the threat of erasure.

Followed by virtual and in-person discussion with director Kalyanee Mam
