Where Is My Land? is a mesmerizing three-channel video, which shows Rady dancing in three locations around Phnom Penh: in the sand-filled remnants of what was once Boeung Snaur, with the Peng Huot housing estate visible in the background; on the ruins of a destroyed house in a seriously eroded section of riverbank along the Mekong; and in the sand-pumping pipes in front of a Cham fishing village, with the Sokha Hotel looming.
Nget Rady’s performance in each of these locations responds to the intensity of the physical environment. While Rady is classically trained in the lkhon khol tradition, in Where Is My Land? little trace of recognizably Khmer dance gestures can be seen. The dance is mostly improvised, with fine muscle twitches and expressive looks creating a sense of intimacy with the camera and viewer.
Khvay Samnang’s direction alternates between close-up shots lingering on these details, and wide-angle views of the hauntingly unnatural-seeming environments. A tantalizing narrative begins to emerge, with the dancing figure appearing displaced, disturbed, desperate.
Several hundred homes have fallen into Cambodia’s rivers in recent years, and several deaths have been reported. Villagers blame the extreme erosion on sand-dredging barges and pipelines, the sound of which torments them day and night. With few options for compensation and little if any access to the luxury developments for which the sand is being mined, many are left wondering: Where Is My Land?

嗯，感觉女儿的心思有被很好的珍视，算是开解了我对一些事情抱有的担忧
zjy真的是个宝藏小孩，从盟里就一直觉得他很透彻，能关注到一些不被重视的东西，能很好的去和别人相处，他的安慰不是开解，也不是支招，就是一种，啊，就是应该说这个的感觉，他强调的balance是自己去打破重塑的balance，感谢[心]
Fsc，从古典的乐团里的低音提琴首席，到开始接触流行，写了《再不向往》，成熟了以后再在Tomorrow land上get了电子，又和朋友一起写了很多很多，有摇滚，有前卫，有Future bass，有Tropical house，在盟的舞台上又更突出了电子的Tropical house。
就是，一直一直在尝试[求关注]
有他们呢，我觉得我真的可以看到这个世界上未被发现的美
