Scenes from an affiliated fest, CAMBOFEST, in Cambodia

Take a look at some interesting stills and video from a regional festival affiliated with Bangkok Indiefest, CamboFest in neighboring Cambodia - talk about building an industry from scratch!

...of course, Thai film industry is far more developed than Cambodian industry, but there's still a lot of interesting stuff coming out of Cambodia (and other parts of SE Asia) these days.

Apologies for Delays -

Apologies for any delay in logging and updating info for submitting films, especially on the Withoutabox database - we received a *huge* number of submissions for the month of September and our volunteers are busy making an offline list of all submissions, which will then be used to update WAB-submitted movies.

We'd aimed to have our own database ready by October 1st, but were stymied by a computer virus - in any case, submitted films that have not been logged yet into the WAB database are not charged an entry fee yet - and won't be until they are completely verified as received and logged.

Thanks for you understanding!
