PHNOM PENH, Nov. 13 (Xinhua) -- Preparations are under way for the CamboFest, Cambodia's first internationally recognized film festival, to be held in Siem Reap on Dec. 26-30, national media reported Thursday.

The three-day festival will show 50 international films, including independent features, documentaries, shorts, animation and films dealing with social issues.

The X Bar will be a focal point, decking out its rooftop with a massive screen and a 4,000-lumen projector, the Phnom Penh Post said.

This venue will screen "out there" and cutting-edge features, shorts, animation and experimental films, it said.

Another confirmed venue is FCC Angkor, which will screen art flicks, documentaries and worthy social issues material, it added.

There will also be an "online venue", namely CamboTube.com, the newspaper said, adding that a complete schedule is expected soon.
