PM 2.5

PM 2.5 (2023)

From condemnation of swidden (often confused with ‘slash and burn’) agriculture on social media to a more nuanced understanding of the reasons behind it, Hatthouna Manivongsy’s “P.M. 2.5” follows Namvone, a passionate writer, to a rural village to see first-hand the struggle for survival by people with few options. Working with Khmu villagers, this short social satire will highlight the culture of the Khmu ethnic group including their existence alongside nature and their traditional beliefs.

Director: Marnoy Hatthouna Manivongsy
