Short-documentary about a visionary actor and his team fight to revive Lakhon Niyeay (Spoken Theater) in Cambodia, facing personal and professional challenges, as he prepares for a major show after six years amidst an uncertain future.
This short documentary chronicles the culture and arts of Cambodian Americans and the Lowell, MA community through the eyes of Sokhary Chau, the first Cambodian American Mayor in the United States. Chau immigrated to the U.S. at seven years old to escape the Khmer Rouge genocide. Through this unique story that showcases the best of Lowell—immigrant success, assimilation, history, and the development of the arts—we see a man born into a war-torn country who comes to America to be a first-in-the-nation leader.
