Som-Ok Southiphone

Som-Ok Southiphone was born in 1946 in Vientiane and trained in cinema in Prague at the turn of the seventies. A documentary maker for the state film service after 1975, he was subsequently reduced to short films and co-productions by the collapse of national production. A leading figure of the film clubs and of the memory of his country's cinema in Vientiane, he came to be regarded as the doyen of a cinema almost without films.
