Who Killed Chea Vichea? - New Zealand premiere!

Who Killed Chea Vichea? - New Zealand premiere!

Fresh off its Peabody Award win and still banned in Cambodia, Who Killed Chea Vichea? will screen eight times in New Zealand's top documentary film festival, the Documentary Edge Festival 2012. These are the very first screenings in New Zealand -- don't miss it!

Directed by Bradley Cox
Produced by Rich Garella and Jeffrey Saunders

In 2004, Cambodian union president Chea Vichea was assassinated in broad daylight at a newsstand in Phnom Penh. Two young men were arrested, convicted, and sentenced to twenty years in prison. Both of them had alibis. Filmmaker Bradley Cox's five-year investigation reveals an elaborate cover-up that reaches the highest echelons of Cambodian society.
