Rice People (1994)

(Khmer with English subtitles)

Directed by Rithy Panh

Acclaimed Cambodian director Rithy Panh reveals the never-ending struggle of Cambodia’s rice-paddy farmers in this powerful story of loss and survival. Panh’s dynamic camerawork throws us into the midst of the oozing mud of the paddies, which are so tightly linked to the life and death struggle of the rice people. Nominated for the Palme d’Or at the 1994 Cannes Film Festival.
