Bonne Nuit Papa: My father, the silent Cambodian in Germany

Dr. Ottara Kem never spoke of his Cambodian background. But on his deathbed, he expressed his desire to be buried in his homeland Cambodia. For his film-making daughter Marina Kem, it is the beginning of an intense, poetic, and conciliate journey.

BONNE NUIT PAPA (2014, 101 min) is a moving film about conciliation, connection, and farewell. It documents Marina Kem‘s search for her father’s story. A father who was strange to her in two regards; strange because of his Cambodian origins, strange because of his silence.
