Why A Film Festival?
Wildlife and natural ecosystems across Cambodia are vanishing at an alarming rate. Today, there is limited awareness of the incredible biodiversity that lives here or the many conservation efforts taking place. That’s about to change! The Cambodian Wildlife Film & Photo Festival (CWFF) celebrates the beautiful diversity of Cambodia’s plant and animal life, and aims to inspire passion for wildlife, nature and conservation. In addition, this event celebrates the people and projects who are saving Cambodia’s wilderness and endangered species.
