Innovation Upon Tradition

Chumvan "Belle" Sodhachivy is one of Cambodia's leading royal court dancers. Royal Court Dance has a history of more than 1,000 years, but it has recently struggled for relevance among the changing tastes of young people. Belle is attempting to rekindle the art by tackling modern topics, and integrating traditional moves with contemporary dance. We follow her efforts to breathe new life into Cambodian traditional dance and pass it down to the next generation.
