Twilight

Directed by H.M Former King Norodom Sihanouk, 69min, 1968. Khmer version with English subtitles

Through this famous film, spectators can get a virtual guide in the capital city of Cambodia, and admire the architecture of the buildings, such as the Chamkarmon Palace, the Independent Monument, the Chaktomuk Theater, the Preah Suramarith National Theater, and the Olympic Stadium.

Against that backdrop, a love story is developed between the Cambodian Prince (interpreted by His Majesty Norodom Sihanouk) and the Indian Princess (interpreted by Her Majesty Norodom Monineath) on her official visit to the country for the Cambodian Independence Day.

This screening is part of the public program Cities and Cinema, accompanying the exhibition “Once upon a time… Phnom Penh City” organized by the French Institute in Phnom Penh.
