- Summary:
- Rithy Panh blurs the line between reality and fiction in "The Burnt Theatre," his mournful, at times bitter plea for Cambodia's lost theater tradition. Emphasizing the nation's need to come to terms with its traumatic past, Panh views the present lack of emphasis on culture as a further withering of Cambodia's soul. Panh began "Burnt" with a working script, adapted it to reflect the performers' actual experiences and shot it like a work of fiction and depicts a troupe of actors and dancers struggling to practise their art in the burned-out shell of Cambodia's former national theatre, the Preah Suramarit National Theatre in Phnom Penh
- "L'idée centrale du film consistait à réunir des comédiens autour d'un projet emblématique de la réalité du Cambodge d'aujourd'hui : quelque chose en nous, la dignité ou l'identité, se décompose et part en lambeaux. Nous ignorons si nous recouvrerons un jour la mémoire après la tragédie du génocide. Le Cambodge est un pays aux rêves brisés. Il n'y a plus de théâtre, plus de salle de spectacle. Les arts traditionnels et populaires sont en train de disparaître à leur tour, face à la concurrence de la télévision. Mais il existe encore des artistes."--Container.
