Welcome to the kingdom of wonders

In an era characterized by a search for meaning and authenticity, to be able, at long last, to bring serious film shoots to the kingdom of Cambodia couldn’t be more timely. Cambodia is in the midst of a cultural resurgence, including the return of an entire generation of Khmers. This influx of talented and highly skilled technical professionals, presents new opportunities to showcase high international standards of quality in film and production shoots. Mekong Movies Production is ready to give your projects an unmatched expertise exclusive to the region and unparalleled access to the kingdom’s lush natural wonders, cultural richness, ancient temples and more.
THE KINGDOM OF CAMBODIA
A land full of wonder
Nestled between Thailand and Vietnam, Cambodia is home to a vast legacy of cultural richness, cultivated over centuries of history. After enduring decades of border disputes and more recent French colonization, the independant Kingdom of Cambodia is steadfast on maintaining its identity and land. This resilient, fighting spirit has never been more present than in recent years in which Cambodians overcame the traumas of the Khmer Rouge era in order to re-emerge on the international stage. Few realize that at its height of power, long before the rise of neighboring Thailand and while the west was still in the dark ages, the original Khmer Empire covered most of present-day Southeast Asia. Its cultural hegemony spread across the region; from dance and architecture to music and sports. To this day, the Khmer Kingdom still holds many mysteries, but one thing is for certain; Cambodia, with its spellbinding wonders and enticing landscapes, surpasses all expectations. Cambodia is the land of the Kingdom Of Wonder and we welcome you to see why Mekong Movie will be your top choice for all your film production needs.
MOST RECENT PROJECT
The Bureau
“Le Bureau des legendes” is perhaps the most watched spy thriller series in France (akin to “Homeland” in the United States). Following a scouting trip with Mekong Movie Productions, the Canal+ team decided to re-write the script so that its scenes would take place in Cambodia instead of their initial setting. The film shoot itself proved them right in their decision and the fifth season of the saga aired in 2020.

Mekong Movies is proud to have taken the proper time to form our teams and source equipment, supporting serious film shoots of all sizes. Our experience in the Southeast Asian region, and particularly Cambodia, ensures that you have the right professionals to work with, as well as every piece of gear in your list.
WARDROBE & ART
Craftsmen & Builders

TALENT
Various Extras & Comedians
A few years ago, American actress and humanitarian, Angelina Jolie lent her talents to critically acclaimed portrait photographer, Annie Leibovitz for a Louis Vuitton campaign shoot in Cambodia. Our team was tasked with a series of interviews, while only a few kilometers away armed conflicts with Thailand were happening. This was an excellent, but rare case of a successful shoot under extremely difficult conditions.
