Police Attempt to Stop Screening of Banned Film

Police Attempt to Stop Screening of Banned Film

 Cambodia Daily | 28 April 2016

Police showed up to a secret screening of a banned documentary about slain environmental activist Chut Wutty in Phnom Penh last night, but the film had ended by the time they moved to shut it down, organizers said.

Several dozen students, monks and activists crammed onto the covered rooftop of the Solidarity House in Sen Sok district—which serves as the headquarters of the Cambodian Youth Network (CYN) and the Coalition of Cambodian Farmers Community—at about 5 p.m. for a clandestine screening of “I am Chut Wutty.”
