Interesting facts

Good Morning, Luang Prabang is a 2008 romantic drama film directed by Sakchai Deenan and starring Ananda Everingham and Khamly Philavong. It was the first commercial film shot in Laos since the country adopted communism in 1975.

Production

Director Sakchai Deenan claimed the plotline was inspired by a visit to Laos in which he fell in love with a Laotian woman and imagining her as a tour guide. He deliberately created a simple plot "so it would not be too hard to get approval from the Lao government." Previously, the only Laotian films were propaganda and patriotism related, produced by the government.
