Meeting with Pol Pot

With subtlety and poetry, the director gradually unveils the ideological mechanisms that led a people into genocide. The use of archival footage and wooden figurines, combined with the actors' performances, brings modesty and restraint to a subject of great violence.

At the beginning of the film, the characters feel unease and try to reassure themselves, but as the reality unfolds, the tension steadily builds. The three characters evolve differently and react uniquely to what they witness.

In a time when social networks are flooded with superficial and sensationalist portrayals of genocide, it's refreshing to see a film that offers a sober and realistic treatment.

A film not to be missed!
