The Act of Killing filming process

2022-01-11 08:01
Anwar invited his accomplice, Herman Coto, the execution captain, to participate in the filming, and reproduce the scene according to the director's "design". They initially thought that the director was going to shoot a film that would set a monument to their "deeds" back then. They imagined that they were actually making a movie, and even made a name for themselves. Therefore, when they faced the camera boasting about their murders, they didn't feel guilty at all, but talked about them. Herman Coto even took the initiative to find extras to cooperate with them in the scene reappearance   .
Oppenheimer was obstructed by the "Five Commandments Youth League" during the filming period, and more of the victims' families remained silent when facing the camera; and the members of the "Five Commandments Youth League" who were willing to act in the film also showed their rogue nature from time to time. The vulgar behavior in the film keeps appearing, and these are all recorded by the camera. On the one hand, the director realized the strong influence of this gang organization in the local area. On the other hand, he also collected the investigation and silence of these victims, which became the subject of his other documentary "The Silent Image"   .

    Found guilty isn't the destiny of a murder who believed in things called "free man".

This was so very, very, very...

  • Anwar Congo: Imagine, in all this darkness, it's like we're living at the end of the world. We look around, there's only darkness. It's so very terrifying.
