Donations to the True Life Fund are now being accepted on-line here.  Each year, True/False spotlights one film and raises funds to support and honor those who appear in front of the camera. We do this by actively collaborating with filmmakers, whose intimate knowledge of their subjects enables us to pinpoint needs and most effectively target our efforts.

The 2010 True Life Fund film, Enemies of the People, directed by Rob Lemkin and Thet Sambath, documents Sambath’s efforts to interview former members of the Khmer Rogue who participated in the widespread killing of villagers during the tumultous period in Cambodia following the end of the Vietnam war. Monies donated to the True Life Fund will be used to further Sambath’s project, as there is still much to be done to ensure that this tragedy is not forgotten. With the help of community partners and festival-goers, we hope to raise over $10,000.

Donations will also be accepted at each screening of the film during the festival.
