The music road documentary film "Mekong Delta Blues" is about Kong Nay and his protege Ouch Savy, and their first tour to Australia and New Zealand. Some call Kong Nay the "Ray Charles of Cambodia" - a charismatic blind musician whose trademark dark glasses and pock marked smile are known all over Cambodia. Nay is one of the great master artists to survive the genocide of Pol Pot, during which up to 90% of artists perished in a purge intended to destroy a 2000 year old culture. But it turned out the culture - and Nay - are irrepressible.
