Portrait of Dunnara   Meas

Born in 1957 in Phnom Penh, photographer Dunnara Meas was 18 when the Khmer Rouge coup d’Etat forced him into exile, in France.

Renowned still photographer for feature films and theater performances, he came back to Cambodia in order to cover the shooting of Rithy Panh’s Les gens de la rizière (Rice People, អ្នកស្រែ in Khmer), which premiered at Cannes Festival in 1994.
