Childrens
When Arn was a young boy in Cambodia, his days were filled
with love, laughter, and the sweet sounds of music. That all
changed suddenly in 1975 when Arn’s village was invaded by
Khmer Rouge soldiers and his family was torn apart. Nine-year-old Arn was taken to a children’s work camp, where
he labored long hours in the rice fields under the glaring
eyes of threatening soldiers. Overworked, underfed, and in
constant fear for his life, Arn had to find a way to
survive. When guards asked for volunteers to play music one
day, Arn bravely raised his hand—taking a chance that would
change the course of his life. A Song for Cambodia is the inspirational true story of Arn
Chorn-Pond. His heartfelt music created beauty in a time of
darkness and turned tragedy into healing.
