The Flute Player

Arn expresses his wish for culture, art, and music to represent Cambodia rather than the killing fields that bare such horrible memories; articulating this relationship between folklore and "official history"

This documentary was so emotionally compelling and thought-provoking.
To see these artists who, overnight, had their entire lives turned upside down and destroyed, one can't help to feel moved.
The Master who went from the nation's opera star, to a begging for food.

Music is a voice to express feelings and pains that words cannot.
