This film is different from most of the previous documentary narratives in that it uses a participant as the protagonist, and uses the participant's memories to describe and interpret the history. After appreciation, I have to praise this narrative method, which is more straightforward This kind of excavation and experience of the history from the re-interpretation of a participant adds to the artistry and reflection, and at the same time, understands the social state of Indonesia from one side.
This documentary was made by an American director. Sometimes I think that the Yankees are really bastards. Back then, they secretly led and instigated the Indonesian right-wing elements to overthrow the state power and fight against communism. The radical and crazy right-wing slaughtered the left and everything that was regarded as communism. A large number of Chinese were killed. Years later, the Yankees went to Indonesia to make a film to expose the past sins of the current Indonesian rulers. Really faceless.
China is also a strange flower. Indonesia killed your parents. You don’t publicize, don’t judge, and you are friendly. People in Indonesia are still proud of killing your parents. They still talk about the scene of killing your parents. . China, how can you feel, dare to ask you have dignity.
Asia, on this beautiful and rich continent, is growing up with all kinds of children with different personalities, such as corrupt China, perverted Japan, Indonesia ruled by hooligans, Vietnam armed by bandits, North Korea with crazy dictatorship, and the streets are full of monsters. Thailand, Indian Asam who was fooled by the West, Saudi Arabia, who was full of local tyrants, and Palestine, Israel, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, etc.
Asia! The Asian continent is in full swing!
