Bombhunters
SPECIAL SEATTLE AREA EVENTJUNE 29th, 2006
BOMBHUNTERS
A documentary about Cambodians who hunt bombs for a living
I am writing to inform you of a special event that Global Youth
Connect is organizing in Seattle on Thursday June 29th. We will be
showing a yet unreleased film entitled "Bombhunters" that documents
the effects of unexploded ordnance on Cambodian people, both within
their homeland and the U.S. Limited tickets are available to this
event both in advance and at the door and all proceeds will benefit
Cambodian youth.
If you are in the Seattle area, I hope you will be able to join us
for this event. We also ask for your help to "get the word out"
about this special screening by sharing this email and the flyer
with friends, family, and colleagues based in the Seattle area who
may be interested in attending. Tickets can be purchased for $10
via our website and for $12 at the door.
This special screening is being organized to help raise money for
Cambodian organizations and all proceeds from the screening will
benefit Cambodian youth projects through GYC's small grants fund.
The screening will be followed with a Q&A with filmmaker Skye
Fitzgerald.
To purchase tickets and for additional information, please visit our

"Bombhunters" documents the effects of UXO (Unexploded Ordnance) on
Cambodian people, both within their homeland and in the U.S. In
particular, "Bombhunters" documents villagers' efforts throughout
rural Cambodia as they seek out UXO and attempt to render it safe
for sale to the scrap metal industry in order to survive. For more
