It is only by reflecting on the past that one can create a better future.

S21' was a film about corporeal memory and how the same gestures repeated many times years earlier can be reawakened.

When the Khmer Rouge reached Phnom Penh, the first thing they did was to evacuate the population. Then they took over. The point of a revolution is to bring justice to the people, so even if you don't have proof of sabotage, you manufacture it.
