Phnom Penh - Cambodia Th Th February 13 - March 8 , 2017 2 ASEAN producers training program Phnom Penh - Cambodia th th February 13 - March 8 , 2017 2 Asiadoc training program At the end of 2014, Docmonde, in partnership with the Bophana Center in Phnom Penh, set up a new program of training on a wide geographical area: the South-East Asia. This program, Asiadoc , has the objective to facilitate the rise of new authors’ point of view and skilled producers, the development of a documentary professionals' net - work (authors, directors, producers, broadcasters) and exchanges between Europe and the 10 countries of the ASEAN region (Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Myanmar, Brunei, Indonesia, the Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand) in the field of cre - ative documentary. In 2015 and 2016, Asiadoc focused on training for documentary filmmakers. 27 au - thors took part in the scriptwriting residences in Phnom Penh and Hanoi and by the beginning of 2017, 22 films are either in development or in production. This year, Asiadoc and its partners decided to address the training to emerging pro - ducers based on the need for this specific profile in the Southeast Asian documentary landscape. Out of 34 applications received, Asiadoc selected 16 participants coming from 8 countries in the ASEAN region: Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. Artistic development of creative documentary, dramaturgy of the script, film screen - ings and analysis, and also coproduction, legal aspects, production strategy, fundraising, budgets, cash-flow and distribution are among the many topics that trainers (Vladimir Léon, Carine Chichkowski, Björn Jensen) will develop during 3 weeks. Participants will also meet with several international experts from different fields. Davy Chou and Marc Eberle will discuss with them about their experiences as local filmmakers, while Thanassis Karathanos will share his extensive knowledge about in - ternational coproductions. And 12 international experts will take part in 3 days of round-tables and individual meetings to deepen important production issues and help the participants sharpen their strategy for the production and distribution of their projects. Once again Asiadoc benefits from the strong support of the regional audiovisual co - operation of the French Ministry of foreign affairs, the Goethe Institute in Bangkok, the German Federal Foreign Office, the French Embassy in Thailand and the French Institute in Cambodia, the German-French cultural fund, the Cambodia Film Com - mission, Film ASEAN, as well as from the cooperation with the Bophana audiovisual resource center, AG Dok, other Goethe and French Institutes in Southeast Asia, the Film Development Council of the Philippines, Wallonia-Brussels International and Meta House cultural center in Phnom Penh. 3 TABLE OF CONTENT Page 4 Program Page 5 Trainers Page 6 Participants Page 23 Experts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ladimir Léon makes documentary films ( Nissim says Max , 2003; The Brahman of the Comintern , 2007; Goodbye the Street of Radiators , 2008, The Polyhedron and the Elephant , 2015) and fictions ( Far from the Front , 1998; The Angels from Port-Bou , 2011).

  • The Perpetrator's Mise-En-Scène: Language, Body, and Memory in the Cambodian Genocide
    JPR The Perpetrator’s mise-en-scène: Language, Body, and Memory in the Cambodian Genocide Vicente Sánchez-Biosca Abstract: Rithy Panh’s film S-21. The Khmer Rouge Killing Machine (2003) was the result of a three- year shooting period in the Khmer Rouge centre of torture where perpetrators and victims exchanged experiences and re-enacted scenes from the past under the gaze of the filmmaker’s camera. Yet, a crucial testimony was missing in that puzzle: the voice of the prison’s director, Kaing Guek Eav, comrade Duch. When the Extraor- dinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) were finally established in Phnom Penh to judge the master criminals of Democratic Kampuchea, the first to be indicted was this desk criminal. The filmDuch, Master of the Forges of Hell (Panh, 2011) deploys a new confrontation – an agon, in the terminology of tragedy – between a former perpetrator and a former victim, seen through cinema language. The audiovisual document registers Duch’s words and body as he develops his narrative, playing cunningly with contrition and deceit. The construction of this narrative and its deconstruction by Panh can be more fully understood by comparing some film scenes with other footage shot before, during and after the hearings. In sum, this ‘chamber film’ permits us to analyse two voices: that of the perpetrator, including his narrative and body language; and the invisible voice of the survivor that expresses itself through editing, sound effects, and montage. Keywords: Perpetrator, audiovisual testimony, body language, cinema, Khmer Rouge, Cambodia Gémir, pleurer, prier est également lâche. Fais énergiquement ta longue et lourde tâche Dans la voie où le Sort a voulu t’appeler.

  • The Bophana Audiovisual Resource Centre and the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC)1
    Chapter 5 Showing now: The Bophana Audiovisual Resource Centre and the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC)1 Rachel Hughes The Bophana Centre is an audiovisual archive, a training centre and a venue for free film screenings in the centre of Phnom Penh, capital of Cambodia. The centre was founded in 2006 by two Cambodian film-makers, Rithy Panh and Pannakar Ieu.2 In the same year, the United Nations–supported Khmer Rouge Tribunal – formally the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) – was also established in Phnom Penh. Although vastly different initiatives, the organisation and tribunal share a concern to work towards some form of justice for victims of Khmer Rouge crimes and to foster dialogue about how to constitute a better present and future in light of this and other historical conflicts in the country. This chapter is based in fieldwork conducted in and around the ECCC between late 2011 and early 2017. It introduces the work of the Bophana Centre as a unique Cambodian organisation and critically explores its relationship to the ECCC in the wider context of what is generally termed Cambodian civil society. It argues that the practices fostered at Bophana are ontologically and epistemologically at variance with transitional justice theory and practice. The creative labour of Bophana’s film- and app-makers is cultural, material and relational. These kinds of practices have seen Bophana play a key role in the outreach and reparation activities of the ECCC, and in turn has changed the nature of these activities. Ten years after its inception, Bophana is a relatively large and well-organised NGO, with both international and Cambodian-based donors and upwards of 25 paid staff.
