A documentary on the Ariane Mnouchkine and the Théâtre du Soleil working with, at its center , extracts from “The Terrible but Unfinished Story of Norodom Sihanouk, King of Cambodia.” “There is no art , writing nor story that doesn’t take its source in love. Choice of Cambodia is also a choice of love. I could not have write about a people whom I can not fall in love. “We hear these words of Helene Cixous, those of Werner Schroeter on cinema. And those, nearby, of Ariane Mnouchkine on her company. “It was the desire to seek the happiness that led to the creation of the Théâtre du Soleil. It was from looking in search of the more beautiful, the more clearly, the more dangerous, the more human. ”
