One of the first films I watched was "S21: The Khmer Rouge Killing Machine" (2003), a powerful documentary about the atrocities committed during the Khmer Rouge regime. The film was a harrowing introduction to the complexities of Cambodian history and the resilience of its people. I was struck by the way the filmmakers wove together personal testimonies, archival footage, and reenactments to create a visceral experience.
