The Killing Fields of Dr. Haing S. Ngor(2015)
The Killing Fields of Dr. Haing S. Ngor Synopsis
When Dr. Haing S. Ngor was forced into labor camps by the Khmer Rouge, little did he know he would escape years of torture and recreate his experiences in a film that would win him an Academy Award®. "The Killing Fields of Dr. Haing S. Ngor" tells the dramatic story about arguably the most recognizable survivor of the Cambodian genocide, a man who became a worldwide ambassador for justice in his homeland, only to be murdered in a Los Angeles Chinatown alley - a case still muddled with conspiracy theories. Through an inspired blend of original animation and rare archival material - anchored by Ngor's richly layered autobiography - the years encapsulating the Khmer Rouge's tyrannical rule over Cambodia are experienced though a politically charged transnational journey of loss and reconciliation.
The Killing Fields of Dr. Haing S. Ngor (2015) is a documentary film directed by Arthur Dong, released on April 26, 2015 with a runtime of 1h 27m. It stars Haing S. Ngor, Wayne Ngor, Jack Ong and Jonathan Nitasneak Dok.
