Say something out of the movie and another loop

In addition to politics and ideology, I think it is mainly because of the difference between the rich and the poor.

There is a chasm between Chinese and native Indonesians. There are hundreds of ethnic groups in Indonesia, but it is said that in the Suharto era, only Chinese people needed to mark themselves as Chinese on their ID cards. As I understand it, this is the same as when the Nazis ruled Germany, the Jews wore the six-pointed star mark.

Why discriminate against...

Silent appeal silently passed

After watching "The Image of Silence" by accident, I learned about a massacre that I had never heard of before. I was even more shocked when I was angry. I didn't expect such a horrible thing to happen in Indonesia!
The Communist Party is as great as a god in China, but it exists like a devil in Indonesia. Those Islamic people who keep saying that they don't know how to kill and abuse people and don't teach people to kill, but they do more horrible things than kill people - if you kill...

"Statue of Silence"

The third film I saw at the Beijing Film Festival.
 
It is also embarrassing, but it is much less surprising than "Deduction of Killing", and it is more of a return to the regular documentary form, which should be said to be a supplementary interpretation of the previous work. "Kill" has the pain of a direct hit, while "Shen" is a dense thorn.
 
Of course, it is still significantly higher than the general documentaries based on political wrestling and sensationalism. The...

THE LOOK OF SILENCE IS NOT ONLY IN INDONESIA

In this film, the murderer is so complacent that he has to go to the United States to receive a reward, feeling that he is a great hero. The military and political leaders tell you that if you want to continue your life, you must forget the past. When you press harder, they will threaten you and ask for your home address.

No one admitted wrong, no one repented, the murderer and his family lived extremely well, only the daughter and wife of one murderer showed some remorse and asked...

On the Statue of Silence

This is a shocking and thought-provoking film.

Crazy killings, ridiculous quibbles and helpless grief hide under the calm narrative. Huge and heavy emotions quickly gathered in less than 100 minutes, reached the peak and could not be released, and even after leaving the theater, they could not let go for a long time.

The content of the film revolves around the September 30 incident in Indonesia. Simply put, the Indonesian government was overthrown and the new military...

Although the structure seems a bit clumsy, the form itself is sufficient, and the theme is strong...

This perspective is very necessary to supplement "Deduction of Killing". This is politics. In the face of distorted history and vague memories, the survivors' families can only continue to live. Those murderers still enjoy the spoils of war after their evil deeds to this day. , history is the word of the victor. The act of choosing to mirror the murderer is so helpful to the subject, can they see their...

It's a bit heavy. The male protagonist is not afraid of being cut when he interviews like this. Having seen The Art of Killing before, I got some background. Of course, such a film is easy to associate with. Recently, a reporter from Liaoning came back to visit the people in the photos taken in that year, and I felt a...
