Bun Channimol (Khmer: ប៊ុន ចាន់និមល) is the CEO of Sastra Film, now one of Cambodia’s most successful film production companies. A major figure in the growth and development of the film industry in Cambodia. Thanks to her hard work and dedication, numerous aspiring filmmakers in Cambodia have been able to pursue their dreams, leading to a steady growth of the Cambodian film industry.
Early Days edit
NIMOL and FILM INDUSTRY edit
Since she was a young child, Nimol has always wished to be a filmmaker. Khmer Kampuchea Krom was the place of her birth. Ever since she studied reading and writing Khmer at the pagoda as a youngster, she had always wanted to be a writer. Her family moved to Cambodia in 1999 when she was nine years old. She envisioned herself as a writer as she grew older. So she signed up for a brief screenwriting course. She could only work as a reporter after graduating, and regrettably, at that time she had no prospect of becoming a film writer. It's difficult to get employment in the film industry. In 2015, she decided to start her own production company and invested $1,000 in the first movie.
Film career edit
Initially, Channimol’s production company was named “Pro Production” and focused on advertisement videos and commercial production services. Seeing the growing interest in Thai and Korean dramas in Cambodia, she saw the potential in film production. Prior to founding Sastra Film, Channimol held various roles in the industry, including editor-in-chief of a Cambodian magazine and assistant director for a TV program.
Despite facing financial struggles, Channimol moved to Phnom Penh as a teenager to pursue her passion, working various jobs to support herself. She honed her writing skills and eventually became a part of the Khmer Writers Association, which helped her build the foundation for her successful career in film production.
Currently, Sastra Film is one of the most popular production companies in Cambodia, with more than 1.45 million subscribers on YouTube. They charge a subscription fee of $5.00 per month to access shows and movies on their smartphones or tablets. With more than 100 staff members working on in-house productions, Sastra Film prides itself on producing films loved by young Cambodian audiences.
Starting from a single employee to 150 employees, our company is also providing job opportunities to over 200 artists per year. We started the company by making 3-minute films and posting them on Facebook.
Currently, we produce hundreds of films a year, with a variety of content such as:
- 24 feature films per year
