A clever lens to view such a tragic time through.

My ex wife is khmer so this history is my kids' history. They're too young right now to be interested but Im always on the lookout for ways to engage them in their heritage. This movie is such a clever lens through which to show the time it chronicles, particularly when the importance of music to khmer culture is so paramount.

One of the most striking/shocking features of this documentary is the complete shift in the lyrics as music is appropriated as a tool for war.

Quite a long watch and I gave it a nine because it takes just a bit long to get to the 70s.
