PHNOM PENH — The student makers of seven short films who won a contest in Cambodia on Monday against 13 other contestants will be invited to compete in a Japanese film festival in Kagoshima Prefecture, organizers said. The final-round judging for the contest winners from Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam will be at the Asia International Youth Movie Festival in Ibusuki in December.
All the entrants make 3-minute films, which must avoid focusing on religion, politics or government criticism, to be chosen to compete in the contest that is among Japanese government events to commemorate Mekong-Japan Exchange Year 2009. Japanese actor and enka singer Ryotaro Sugi, who was among the nine-member panel of judges in Phnom Penh on Monday, originated the idea for the Asia International Youth Movie Festival, one of the organizers said.
