Community Video Statements: Our Concerns About The Lower Sesan 2 Dam

Part One

Five villages from northeastern Cambodia participated to create videos to express their concerns about the proposed Lower Sesan 2 dam project. Each village chose filmmakers that received basic training on operating a video camera and using a microphone.

These five videos were then edited together to make a composite “statement film” to represent a spectrum of feelings about the proposed dam. The five participating villages represent two different provinces (Stung Treng and Ratanakiri), and three different ethnic groups (Lao along with the Pnong and Brao indigenous peoples).
