| 2008 LVHIFF THE BETRAYAL
American Immigrant Filmmakers on Profile | Hawaii PREMIERE
Filmed over the course of 23 years, THE BETRAYAL (NERAKHOON) is an epic story of one family's journey from war-torn Laos to the mean streets of New York, from the ‘80s to the present. Thavisouk Phrasavath tells the story of himself as a young man struggling to survive a war and the hardships of immigrant life. His mother tells her own astonishing tale of perseverance as a soldier's wife. Breathtaking and compelling, renowned cinematographer Ellen Kuras’s directorial debut is a remarkable collaboration with co-director Phrasavath - a poetic and deeply personal film about the hidden, human face of war’s “collateral damage.”
