24.01.2022 Film producer Margaret Murphy of Wandering Souls Documentary and a former commissioning editor for SBS shared a heartfelt film review of ‘Return to KID’: Sin...ce viewing Return to KID I was so moved, I had to take time out to think about and absorb the film after watching with mixed enotions, both sadness and joy. Always a strength in a good documentary. The raw expression of remembrances from Vanna's family left me close to tears. Visually, it was beautifully shot with the emphasis always on the story teller... and edited, at a pace of the story being told. Well done Vincent Tay, Krystal Seang and everyone else involved in completing the film. This is an important and impressive documentary and I hope it will be seen nationally. Vanna worked very closely with Margaret Murphy and the Director/Producer Aviva Ziegler on Wandering Souls Documentary now screening on SBS Online: This film charts the mounting of a Cambodian stage production that commemorates those who died under the Khmer Rouge. Interweaving heart wrenching accounts of survival by those involved it also celebrates the renaissance of a lost artistic life.

Thank you Margaret for your touching review of Return to KID, and a heartfelt thank you to both Aviva and Margaret for dedicating your film in loving memory of our dearly missed Vanna.

18.01.2022 At the start of this month corresponding with the waning crescent moon of the lunar calendar Cambodian Buddhists around the world began celebrating one of largest cultural-social-religious holidays of the year: Pchum Ben. Sometimes described as the festival of hungry ghosts or ancestors’ day, the first 14 days of the 15-day celebration are called Kan Benand the last day, Pchum Ben.The entire celebration commemorates the 15 days of the year when it’s said the gates of hell open for ghosts to be among us, searching for food. https://www.cambodianlivingarts.org/pchumben/
