Weaving a new life from a lost art
Cambodian silk making is a traditional art that has been passed down through generations from mother to daughter. But when Japanese craftsman and businessman Kikuo Morimoto found that the practice was in danger of disappearing after decades of violence in the country, it became his life's mission to revive the lost art. See it in this week's FRONTLINE/World Rough Cut.
