Who Killed Chea Vichea? (Khmer-language version)

Chea Vichea was Cambodia’s most respected and influential labor leader. Despite beatings and death threats, he fought alongside the workers, winning better wages and conditions from the country’s billion-dollar garment industry and becoming a hero to millions. 
One sunny morning, a motorcycle pulled up to the newsstand where Vichea had stopped to read the daily paper. The passenger stepped off, walked over to Vichea and calmly gunned him down.

Who Killed Chea Vichea? is the result of filmmaker Bradley Cox’s five-year effort to unmask the forces behind a murder that sent an unmistakable message of fear. He convinces witnesses to speak, exposes a frame-up that sent two innocent men to prison and peels back a corner of Cambodia’s façade of democracy.

Who Killed Chea Vichea? takes us deep into the heart of darkness, to the source of the terror that maintains one of the world’s most corrupt regimes.

Since the film was completed, the Cambodian government has sent riot police to break up screenings, vowed to prevent them “wherever they are held” and threatened to seize any copies it finds. We make this Khmer-language version available to viewers inside Cambodia and Khmer speakers everywhere.
