Knowing that it is a very heavy subject, I didn't expect the process to be so ironic. The whole party is a cult film, I am surprised. The characters in the film are impressive. EP is Errol Morris and Herzog

The director's cut version is really too long, and I understand that the director doesn't want the audience to focus on a shocking historical event, but more to reflect on reality and self. The best film I've seen at this year's film festival
Adi Zulkadry - Fellow Executioner in 1965: We crushed their necks with wood. We hung them. We strangled them with wire. We cut off their heads. We ran them over with cars. We were allowed to do it. And, the proof is we murdered people and were never punished. The people we killed, there's nothing to be done about it. They have to accept it. Maybe I'm just trying to make myself feel better, but it works: I've never felt guilty, never been depressed, never had nightmares.
Anwar Congo: Did the people I tortured feel the way I do here? I can feel what the people I tortured felt. Because here my dignity has been destroyed, and then fear come, right there and then. All the terror suddenly possessed my body. It surrounded me, and possessed me.
Joshua Oppenheimer: Actually, the people you tortured felt far worse, because you knew it's only a film. They knew they were being killed.
Anwar Congo: But I can feel it, Josh. Really, I feel it. Or have I sinned. I did this to so many people, Josh. Is it all coming back to me? I really hope it won't. I don't want it to, Josh.
