#film #Rithy_Panh's #The_Missing_Picture: A Survivor’s Memory of the Cambodian Genocide
Rithy Panh’s award-winning The Missing Picture, about the horrors of his childhood in Cambodia under the #Khmer_Rouge, was one of the most powerful films screened at the recent Thessaloniki Documentary Film Festival. Told using clay #figurines, the film shows us step by step how the Khmer Rouge took charge in 1975, killing the educated, the “capitalist” class, minorities and those against the regime. The clay figures are suddenly forced to dress all in black, and line up to obey orders, including hard labor in eerily green rice fields, forced propaganda lectures, and the loss of any personal items.
