bloodlines intertwines the use of interview, archival footage, and images of a traditional healing practice called gha kchal to explore the relationship between the videomaker and her mother, a survivor of the Khmer Rouge genocide. Gha kchal, or coining, is a practice where the healer bruises the body, allowing the sick blood to rise to the surface.

I love this piece. As a piece about family, it goes so much further than others I've seen, with so many layers. I'm sorry the video compression is so bad!

Such a personal piece. the heart beat at the end resonates. i wish the compression on this was higher quality.
thank you for sharing this, it's emotional and captures a piece of your family's history which you will now always have.
