Cambodian lesbian film rocks it.

not from the movie, but a hot chick..

Okay…so I couldn’t find a picture from the movie…or a picture of the lady who wrote the movie. Kind of a fail, but kind of a win?

Either way, this is starting to get interesting…you get get married to your girl in Iowa, and now it seems, you can see a lesbian movie on the big screen in Cambodia. According to AFP, the first Cambodian lesbian film has been an overwhelming hit in mainstream viewing. It was written by Phoan Phuong Bopha, who said that she wrote the film to draw attention to lesbian discrimination after the Prime Minister of Cambodia disowned his adopted daughter who came out. The movie itself, “Who am I?” sounds pretty interesting…

“The movie tells the tale of two women falling in love over a series of long-distance telephone conversations, with the Cambodian-American travelling to Cambodia to meet the star, she said.

But the feature ends in tragedy when the man the actress’s parents want her to marry tracks the pair down.”

Kudos to Phoan Phuong Bopha, for being a kick-butt chick, and to the film industry in Cambodia who took the chance to put it out there. Where’s the mainstream lesbian film in America? With a sagging economy, what better to draw movie-goers than a couple of women making out on screen…a little lesbian could go a long way to stimulate the economy.
