Saturday and Sunday July 19 and 20, 6pm at the North Campus Theater of the Royal University of Fine Arts, Street 70 next to the Old Stadium. Tickets riel 3,000, available at the door.

In the play, two photos come to life in this true-life exhibit. They are a young Cambodian woman and man whose photos were taken by the Khmer Rouge right after removing their blindfolds at the Tuol Sleng Prison in Phnom Penh.
