Just back from Kampot, Cambodia , location of the historic CAMBOFEST, Cambodia Film Festival ( www.cambofest.com ), 3rd edition, where CamboFest staffers re-discovered and revived the once popular vintage Cambodian cinema house, the ROYAL (established in 1955 or so) As seen in previous coverage from that CamboFest event , the Royal had been unused since 1986, and had been completely forgotten by most, including all long time expatriates in the region. However, many older Cambodian Kampot residents remembered the old vintage cinema house very well. In 2009, CamboFest staffers including coordinator Phun Sokunthearith (Mr. Tol) and founder/co-organizer Jason Rosette had stumbled upon the old venue while searching for reputed vintage cinema houses in the area. Among those venues visited were two of the other original cinema halls in Kampot, the Makara ('January') and the Santhapeap ('Friendship').

Cambodian Princess Soma Norodom , working with the 'Freedom Deal' movie production effort in Cambodia as a local PR & Outreach Liaison, makes the following statement:   "With the support of the international media and filmmaking community, the story told in ' Freedom Deal ' , about an unexplored part of US-Cambodian history during the Indochina conflict, can finally be told from a Cambodian perspective." "By training and using local cast and crew, alongside Western and other developed world professionals, Camerado SE Asia also seeks to help revitalize the re-emerging Cambodian film production industry following its destruction during the Khmer Rouge regime. I am honored to be involved with the movie, 'Freedom Deal!'".  ( See Soma's new column at the Phnom Penh Post HERE ) Learn More & Contribute to the 'Freedom Deal' film project in Cambodia @  http://www.indiegogo.com/freedomdeal-shortversion

Met with more talent today, for Camerado's FREEDOM DEAL feature effort here in Phnom Penh Cambodia; this was local casting session #3 . We're currently running Cambodia's first-ever crowd funding campaign for a feature film to help raise funds to shoot a section of the full length movie; contribute and participate in our effort on IndieGogo at:  http://www.indiegogo.com/freedomdeal-vietnam-war-cambodia-part-1 In particular (and most challenging to find) we met with four contenders for the role of 'Nuon' , the musician/refugee who plays a Cambodian instrument called the Tro Khmer. In the 'Freedom Deal' story, Nuon and the young protagonist, Samnang ('Lucky') make their way on foot to the safety of the provincial capital as the civil war expands into Cambodia.    'Freedom Deal' takes place during the 1970 US-ARVN 'Cambodian Incursion', during which Nixon sought to locate and destroy NVA & Viet Cong sanctuar...
