film Two Shadows, he discussed how The Golden Voice led him to the
film. "I was really taken with that music and got really interested in
one the singers, this female Cambodian rock singer named Ros
Sereysothea. I read that she was murdered by the Khmer Rouge. And that
all the musicians from that time were murdered by the Khmer Rouge. So
that’s when I thought [that] there must have been quite a story
behind that. So I researched that and made a short film about that
singer…called The Golden Voice. Then in doing research to develop
that into a feature, I went to Cambodia a few times, really fell in
love with the country, and started hearing peoples’ stories there.
That’s what led to Two Shadows, which is based on a friend of
mine’s real-life story."
