Rithy Panh’s award-winning documentary, endorsed by Human Rights Search For, will be painful for any compassionate human being to discover. The documentary brings together two surviving prisoners and a group of musty Khmer Rouge cadre, interrogators, executioners, guards, portray keepers, and the photographer who staffed the improper S-21 prison where over 16,000 Cambodians were tortured, interrogated, and trucked off to be killed and cast into mass graves.

The scenes were filmed inside the level-headed standing prison and at the Choeung Ek killing field. The Khmer language dialogue is crisply and accurately subtitled in English.
The executioner sits in his home enduring the lecture by his mother, who bemoans the fate of her son, turned into a killer by the Khmer Rouge. She raised him to know better. His father urges him to divulge the truth and prefer responsibility for those he killed.

Former prisoner Chum Mey collapses in tears in front of the prison, unable to teach, as painful a scene as I have ever watched on film.
Interrogators sit holding photos and confessions of their victims and discuss specific cases — beatings, torture, forcing female prisoners to strip off their clothes, unspeakable sexual violations. Old-fashioned guards re-enact their prison routines on area, escorting incoming prisoners, monitoring the cells, taking prisoners to interrogation, taking them to the trucks headed to the killing field. Executioner and driver re-enact the execution and burial routine. The outmoded prison staff re-enact political indoctrination and training meetings they attended in the prison, using superb archival photos and documents preserved by the first-rate NGO, the Documentation Center of Cambodia, which is led by Cambodian-American director Mr Youk Chhang. The interrogators admit “embellishing” the interrogation reports. The prisoners admit “implicating” everyone they knew because that was what the interrogators wanted.
Surviving prisoner Vann Nath sits with the shamed archaic Khmer Rouge staff to try to fathom what was in their minds when they carried out the atrocities. “There are no more ideals, no more human conscience. We become dust in the wind.” One of the final scenes is of dust blowing inside the upper floor of the prison during a thunderstorm.
It is in vogue this very week for some of our leaders to publicly challenge Human Rights Behold and Amnesty International, calling them haters of America with ridiculous charges not to taken seriously. God knows the work of these two organizations is intended in portion to insure that we never have to sit in shame in front of any human who suffered abuse at our hands or in our name. Documenting human rights violations around the world helps us to sustain constantly alive in our minds the stark differences between “freedom-lovers” and “evil-doers.” We must operate with the utmost transparency and openness with daily international inspections and request the same from all of our momentary allies of convenience around the world.
Every American interrogator, intelligence officer, and prison guard and military officer should see and learn and pride himself in incandescent that he is in no arrangement like the interrogator in the film who says, “I was arrogant. I had power over the enemy. I saw him as an animal.”
A different kind of a documentary yet incredibly mighty and spirited.
When we were young we were told that after our life on earth we would be resurrected before the God of death. Our crimes, every bit of them down to the minutest detail would then be read out and the punishment for the crimes would then be executed in Hell. Based on the intensity of the crime the appropriate mode of punishment would be meted out sparing no one and most importantly no tiny sin or crime committed during our earthly life. No would be allowed to die but endure the pudgy measure of his/her punishment. To avoid telling lies or stealing or being dis-obedient a repulsive and detailed list of various kinds of punishments were also told to us.
The Khmer Rouge brought a hell worse than this to earth. Their hell defies human imagination. Unlike the hell we customary to be told in the stories, at S21 none of the victims knew what crimes they had done in their previous lives or in their explain. There is so great talk about Karma in the documentary. The victims were not allowed to die, or even commit suicide. They had to go through torture, then forcibly heed confessions of crimes they never did and then executed for those crimes. So they were looked after to be tortured unto death. They were also told that their punishment would be reduced if they divulged the names of other people. Out of afflict and horror of torture victims would name their enjoy kith and kin. The Khmer Rouge had objective found another superior reason to rope in more victims.
Like another reviewer wrote, these guards manning the prison and indulging in such crimes under the orders of the Khmer Rouge supremos were suffering from some collective mental disorder. Were the perpetrators doing all this out of scare of their enjoy survival in the Khmer Rouge. Like Macbeth after the first execute and the second the rest objective seemed like a habit. People were slaughtered like animals. The worst of torture methods performed on them.
The documentary is about the meeting of painter Vann Nath and carpenter Chum Mey, survivors of S21 with the mature guards of the prison. Van Nath and Chum Mey were two of the 7 survivors of the 14,000 prisoners who were tortured at S21 and subsequently killed at Choeung Euk. Vann nath himself admits in the documentary how lucky he has been as many painters, some even better than him were executed.
The guards, most of them who were in their teens when they did these crimes perceive serenely still but having gone through hell themselves you wonder what is going on in their minds, remorse? regret? Sometimes they seem lost too maybe having realized what they have done and why they could do nothing about it. The enactments seem so natural and automatic as they might have done it ritually a zillion times. Even when Van nath asks them in an offending fashion they retort calmly, but not remorselessly or feeling offended. From deranged minds to minds of aloof they recognize like victims who have been through hell too in the post-Khmer Rouge era. The death cries and screams, blood and the suffering of the victims they tortured and killed will never leave them and will haunt them till their maintain deaths.
In the beginning of the documentary when the Cambodian song is being played there is a shadowy and white narrate of the Cambodians working hard in the fields. It is a pathetic glance of them running around and working. So sunless they never could reap the benefits of that labour, whether they worked hard out of terror or for the betterment of Cambodia. Also earlier in the documentary one of the killers (perpertrators of the crime) is shown handling a baby, his have I guess. I was wondering if the
thoughts of killing babies and children ever went through his head or maybe it serene does and haunts him as he says he many a time suffers severe headaches and goes without eating for nights. At the raze of the film, Van Nath is seen searching through some burnt rubble and picks up a button. How many times would have the victim wearing the shirt or skirt old that button on his/her cherished dress. How many times would have she or he cleaned it, polished it…
An innovative style of documentary making. Highly recommended if you are aware of the Cambodian genocide or better unruffled, if you have watched Roland Joffe’s “The Killing Fields”.
