From the origin of this documentary, to the shooting experience, to the content and style of the film, to the way the story is told, it is a rare "miracle". In the camera, a group of murderous kings are proudly telling the world about and restoring their slaughter behavior. Outside the camera, I suddenly feel the fear and trembling from 1965. When narrow-mindedness and prejudice are bound by power, it will evolve into an extremely blind collective fanaticism, and the evil in human nature will have the possibility of infinite amplification, such as war and massacre. Political factors aside, the disappearance of such a large number of lives did not come from the force majeure of nature, but simply because of the uncontrollable evil in human nature. History should be remembered, not for those vigorous political actions, but for the fresh life that silently disappeared in the long river of time.
