---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Talaya Sin <[email protected]> Date: Tue, Mar 8, 2011 at 5:32 PM <https://www.boxbe.com/overview> Dear Perom I hope this email finds you well! I want to let you know that there’s another important film for the Cambodian American community coming to the film festival, *Cambodian Community Development, Inc., will be a Festival co-presenter for this film. * I encourage you to go see it. *RESIDENT ALIENS **follows three American outcasts forced to resettle in the unforgiving Cambodian capital, Phnom Penh, land of their birth. KK, China and Looney - all former gang members and ex-cons - are Cambodian refugees whose families survived a genocide that wiped out nearly a fifth of the country's population. They grew up in California but were deported - along with hundreds of others - after felony convictions. With few skills, little money and no family to fall back on, they face new obstacles and follow different paths towards reconciliation. While China and Looney erect walls to block out the pain, KK, through break-dancing, takes on the challenge of helping kids in even more desperate circumstances than him.* *RESIDENT ALIEN* <http://caam.gala-engine.com/2011/films-events/film/105> *Sat 03.12 730pm* Sundance Kabuki Cinemas *Tue 03.15 415pm* Viz Cinema @ New People This 29th San Francisco International Asian American Film Festival<http://asianamericanmedia.org/>, the largest and most prestigious international showcase of Asian and Asian American films.
