Rainy Season/Spring Fundraiser continues for CAMBOFEST, Cambodia - Supporters are standing up for the causeFW: Urgent: Cambodia's only independent film festival still faces funding shortfall--but supporters are standing up for the cause! [Phnom Penh, Cambodia, May 24, 2009] CAMBOFEST, Cambodia's first and only internationally recognizedindependent film festival (now in it's 3rd year) is still facing asignificant funding shortage, three weeks into a Spring/Beginning ofrainy season funding drive. Despite international acclaim and kudosfrom industry professionals as varied as Julie and Roger Corman, thefestival is in danger of eventual shutdown due to significant fundinggaps. CAMBOFEST is also 100% diligent about presenting movies only withpublic performance rights in place, with documented permission from thecopyright holders. This is a standard upheld by numerous motion picturegroups and associations, including the MPAA and others. By striving to set an example in a region beset by rampant piracy andweak IP standards, CAMBOFEST is doing its part to develop a viablemedia industry in an emerging democracy. But now, CAMBOFEST needs your help!
