The Missing Picture (DVD)

The Missing PictureLabel: New Wave FilmsDescription: For many years I have been looking for a missing picture: a photograph taken between 1975 and 1979 by the Khmer Rouge when they ruled over Cambodia...On its own of course an image does not prove mass murder but it prompts us to think to meditate to build history. I searched for it in the archives in old papers in the villages of my country in vain. Now I know: this image must be missing. I was not in fact really looking for it; would the image not be obscene and insignificant? Thus I have made it up. What I offer you today is neither the image nor the search for a unique image but the image of a quest: the quest that cinema allows.; Rithy PanhThe Missing Picture was inspired by the book Rithy Panh co-wrote with Christophe Bataille The Elimination: A Survivor of the Khmer Rouge Confronts his Past and the Commandant of the Killing Fields (Clerkenwell Press 2013). The film won the highest award of Cannes Un Certain Regard selection.

"The Missing Picture (DVD) would be a perfect fit for anyone seeking to complete their movie collection or finding solace in a classic film from their childhood."
