Rithy
Panh uses clay figures, archival footage, and his narration to
recreate the atrocities Cambodia's Khmer Rouge committed between 1975
and 1979
My
ratings
8.0/10
My
impressions:
The
different techniques used to depict what happened gave a different
feel from the usual style audiences are used to seeing. We do not
know see any reenactment of the past using actors but through the
eyes of the puppets. The static position of the puppets seem to echo
the dead, as if time stood still during those years..
A
haunting experience.
It
is unbelievable
Such
atrocities were even thought of
With
no distinction
Between
the weak, the young, the infirm
Everyone
was supposed to be an equal
But
as always there
Are
equals who are more equal than others
