SEASONS OF MIGRATION

(Directedy by John Bishop, USA 2009, 56 min., English/Khmer with English subtitles)

Seasons of Migration presents Sophilene Cheam Shapiro's four part classical Cambodian dance about the stages of culture shock. It blends the dance with commentary about the music and choreography, and personal stories of emigration and culture shock from Cambodian-American residents of Long Beach, California (the largest Cambodian city outside of Cambodia). The dance uses a classical vocabulary to address contemporary themes.
