On June 11, the Associates of Brand Library & Art Center and Los Angeles Filmforum will present a screening of the 2014 documentary “Don’t Think I’ve Forgotten: Cambodia’s Lost Rock and Roll” directed by John Pirozzi. The film will be followed by an informal discussion about the film and the music’s legacy.  

“Don’t Think I’ve Forgotten: Cambodia’s Lost Rock and Roll” chronicles Cambodia’s tragic history through the eyes, words and songs of the country’s popular music stars of the 1950s, ’60s and ’70s.  This musical creativity culminated in the Khmer Rouge’s dismantling of society and a genocide that saw the murder of two million of its citizens including many creatives. The film tracks the complex path of Cambodian music as it morphed into rock and roll via rare archival material and interviews with surviving Cambodian musicians.  

Following the screening, LA Filmforum executive director Adam Hyman will moderate a conversation with panelists and the audience.   

The film’s run time is 1 hr., 45 min. It will screen on Thursday, June 11. Doors open at 6 p.m. and screening begins at 6:30 p.m. Post-screening discussion begins at 8:15 p.m.

It will be screened at Brand Library & Art Center, 1601 W. Mountain St. in Glendale (in Brand Park; enter at Grandview & Mountain streets).

Admission is free and open to the public; no reservations are required.
