Sleepwalking Through the Mekong

Fans of Cambodian rock band Dengue Fever finally get a chance to see the band's long-awaited documentary film Sleepwalking Through The Mekong! The documentary follows the Los Angeles-based band on their 2005 journey to Cambodia to perform '60s and '70s Cambodian rock 'n' roll in the country where it was created - and very nearly destroyed. More than a "rockumentary," the film serves up a portrait of modern Cambodia as the band tours through Phnom Penh and beyond, crossing a great cultural chasm with the same spirit of Cambodia's original rock pioneers. The package features a DVD as well as a CD soundtrack of the film that chronicles the band's trip to Cambodia. Dengue Fever was the first Western band to perform Khmer-rock in the country it was created, and this set features some of the band's performances with master Cambodian musicians.
