The Plastic House with Allison Chhorn
Release Date:
In this episode, we feature a conversation with Allison Chhorn about her film THE PLASTIC HOUSE (2020). THE PLASTIC HOUSE is a highly immersive film that occurs almost entirely inside and around her Cambodian family’s dilapidated greenhouse in South Australia. Economical yet expansive, Chhorn filters and displaces her fears about her parents’ deaths and a precarious future onto an intensely moving narrative of ritual, physical labor, and isolation.Also referenced in this podcast is Chhorn’s Carte Blanche from Visions du Reel, which you can view here. Zanré Reed moderates the discussion.For show notes, visit docsinorbit.com and be sure to follow us on social media @docsinorbit
