Abstract
This film represents a demonstration of Khmer classical dances by Cambodian royal court dancers. It was filmed during Ruth Page's tour of Southeast Asia in 1928; this reel in particular is labeled December 12, 1928. It was filmed in low light so the movements are often hard to make out; the original container notes suggest the demonstration may have taken place at a museum.
