Developing Skills
With support from VOICE, LPFF organized and hosted a five-day “Developing Skills” training for the Lao Children’s Workshop, a young filmmaking team from the Luang Prabang Orphanage School. President and Co-Founder of Lao New Wave Cinema, Anysay Keola, assisted by established Luang Prabang-based filmmakers, Houmphanh Phahongchanh and Sonepasith Phanphila, helped nine boys conceptualize and form the foundation for a short film project that they will produce after the completion of the workshop. All three filmmakers will continue to guide the boys throughout their production with the goal of establishing a strong and lasting mentorship.
