    The human catastrophe brought about by the Khmer Rouge in the 1970s, which killed 3 million people, has only been reproduced in a few films of "To the Furious Sea" and "The Killing Field". I saw this filming on the Internet in 2017. download and watch the movie. After watching it, I learned that the director was the famous American actress Angelina Jolie, which was adapted from the memoirs of a Cambodian girl who was only 7-10 years old at the time. Since the whole film is described with the...

    The mediocrity of the running account style, in addition to narrating the experience of the little girl in the big background, is too scattered to grasp the point. Such a good subject matter, if you don't know the choice, it will be more meaningful to make a...

    The film is neatly shot, and the background of the times adds to the brilliance. The film tries its best to present the miserable world in the eyes of the little girl, so it is real and therefore trivial, and it can be named "Daily Life in the Red Cambodian Period". Julie's spirit is commendable. The people of Cambodia depend on the Vietnamese to liberate, the history depends on the Americans, and the landmines depend on the United Nations to dig, so sad. It is also sad that, according to the...

    Covered History and the Silent Majority

    Julie is also a director, a brave woman.

    Cambodians should never forget the harm of the Khmer Rouge to Cambodia. Pol Pot's bloody regime has claimed the lives of almost 1/4 of the country's population, which should be the highest proportion of people massacred and persecuted by the Communist regime...

    always doubt those reunions

    There will always be doubts about those reunions, whether it's three or five, and even in the process I've seen the reunion as her imagination. That is always too cruel, and such a reunion contains a huge drama, but for war, for totalitarianism, it seems like the possibility that no matter how...

First They Killed My Father quotes

  • Propoganda Announcer: It's better to make a mistake and kill an innocent person than to leave an enemy alive.

  • Loung Ung: What happens when people die?

    Older Girl: At first they think they're sleeping peacefully, not knowing they are dead. They sleep for three days. And then on the third day, they wake up. That's when they realize they are dead. They walk to a river, wash the dirt from their bodies, and start their journey to heaven to reincarnate.

    Loung Ung: Where do they go?

    Older Girl: I don't know.

    Loung Ung: I hope Keav won't have to come back here.
