Seeing Siem Reap
Documentary
2016
16 min
San Francisco, CA
Set against the backdrop of the ancient Khmer temple Angkor Wat, 'Seeing Siem Reap' chronicles a group of Cambodian street kids with the unique opportunity to participate in a one-week intensive photography and dance workshop. These children of landmine victims and HIV positive parents support their families by begging and selling wares to tourists. The chance to cultivate artistic expression is a stark contrast to their regular lives on the streets of the Siem Reap and motivates them to pursue education. 'Seeing Siem Reap' explores this amalgam of ancient culture, poverty, global tourism and creative expression for social change through the lives of the children.
