CAMBOFEST: Film and Video Festival of Cambodia is the first international, independent movie festival in Cambodia (and currently the only annual international movie event in Cambodia)
Now entering our 4th Edition, CAMBOFEST sets a standard for the region by screening all movies only with the permission of filmmakers/copyright holders. Our aim is to contribute to the return of a viable movie industry in Cambodia by showcasing movies by both international and local Cambodian filmmakers - and in the process, entertaining and 'edutaining' a whole new moviegoing audience.
Our most recent, 3rd edition took place in a vintage pre-Khmer Rouge cinema house which CamboFest staff discovered in Kampot, on Cambodia's South CamboFest brought that movie house, the Royal, back to life especially for the event - and truem pioneering movie magic was experienced by all festgoers and participating filmmakers.

Director: Jason Rosette.
In a desert town somewhere in the Southwest United States, a young woman seeks a renegade animal cloning expert who claims he can bring her recently deceased daughter back to life.
Accompanied by her illegal immigrant companion, Javier Apollinaire, Susan steals some cash and embarks on a secret journey in order to meet the Doctor and begin the procedure.
But can he really do it? Can she even find him?
Enter new, green, bumbling federal agent Carl Wisconsin. Carl’s very first assignment is to track Susan in order to find the elusive Doctor and take him down for his illegal activities.
Meanwhile, a struggling Native American potter named Lonnie is on his own mission: he needs to some raise desperately needed tuition money to send his daughter to college, after her financial aid unexpectedly falls through.
Ultimately, these disparate characters and stories cross paths at one critical moment, and their lives are forever changed as a result.
