This documnetary was very touching, while also being incredibly sad to watch! Especially regarding the people being torn apart from each other. Music brought them together, and that was stripped away when the government wanted to control everything to an extreme level. The Prince was very flip-floppy with his position in which government he supported. The emphasis on culture and arts started to shift towards militant attitudes that brought the people to a divide. I'm glad the people preserved through a lot of it, despite the chaos going on around them. Thank you for uploading this mastery of a documentary to youtube.

I am amazed, perhaps heartbroken as well, that you failed to mention Pol Pot came to power amidst Cambodia's destabilization as the "secret" Kissinger-Nixon carpet and mine bombings had their intended effects. 1/3 of Cambodia's population was killed during that period. All elements of Western culture where "wiped" away, as the population largely died of starvation while in Pol Pot's concentration camps. After Pol Pot was driven from power a shell of normalization emerged. but the USA's mines continue till today to take their toll. LP's and 45's of this past era. the mish-mash of USA rock, pop, lounge, and country-western music played on USA Armed Forces Radio, was integrated into Khmer music, then came out of walls, floorboards, and other hiding places. That is the history, and the music, this film recounts. If you need a non-textbook introduction to what the USA enabled in Cambodia, read this book: www.amazon.com/When-Broken-Glass-Floats-Growing/dp/0393322106. You may also want to learn the fever of the USA/Cambodian band, Dengue Fever

@@RobertHogner I’ll also mention the fact that this is well explained in the video, Sisamouth and Ros both were enslaved for a few years before they attempted to make a run and their existences were long questioned as many of the Cambodian’s lives were devastated. I was looking at the brighter side of culture and how that can be easily taken away and destroyed when things like war take initiative over society, some many of the western influences altered the Cambodians looks at music and brought a new taste into their lives, thank you.

@@RobertHogner Pol pot is what I implied when I mentioned armed war, Cambodia going into a frenzy from Nixon bombing the Ho Chi Minh trails brought a lot of contraversity from American citizens, propaganda controlled the Cold War during this time, and as the USA's focus on communism brought them into the Vietnam war this attitude furthered many deaths in Cambodia and Vietnam. I didn't mean to come off insensitive when I mentioned the Prince, he didn't have much of a choice as he had to submit to the forces of Pol Pot otherwise he would see his life being taken out of desperation. Western culture made its away over to Cambodia in many forms of music and artistic culture, a lot of which had a profound effect on the youth. 1/3 of the population did get killed and this is very heartbreaking as I mentioned people were stripped away from each other and divided to only become slaves under the authority of Pol Pot as a Socialist society, but the Prince wanted a mix of Capitalism and Socialism, not outright one or the other. If you want to continue a discussion, I'm all ears and I look forward from hearing from you once more, the book you sent looks very interesting and I'd be more than willing to give it a read, thank you and I wanted to clarify what I said as it may have been interpreted the wrong way as a prop piece, however my intentions are purely to explain how I feel about the people and their decimated culute and lost memories of people and villages. Thank you. The genocide fields and prisons are dishearting. Villages left with very few left in them, and 260,000 Cambodians fled to France and the USA to get away from the trouble that was Pol Pot's decimation of the Cambodian People's. He overthrew Lon Nol to take power and abused that power to his liking which continued for 3 years until it was too late where 1/4 of the entire population was gone in less than 5 years. Its horrifying to think about.
