The Missing Picture
L'image manquante
2013
Synopsis
Rithy Panh’s film portrays his memories of living in a Khmer Rouge labor camp. Realizing he didn’t have any photographs that might help to paint a picture of the horrors of genocide, he used ceramic figures to depict his lost childhood while providing eloquent testimony to his family’s tragedy.
Editorial
Cambodian master Rithy Pan delved into his very own souvenirs for his Oscar®-nominated documentary. The Missing Picture revisits history through the lens of media creation, delivering a powerful, utterly moving meditation on memory and resistance through the spectacular craft of figurine animation.
