Que je vive en paix (May I Live In Peace) is an animated film featuring the voices of victims of the Cambodian genocide heard from behind a father's explanation of his need to acknowledge his own experience and share his memories. By Cambodian director Paul Tom, it won Best Animated Film at the Montreal Film Festival.
Life In An Open Prison is a documentary produced by high school students from Montreal. It contains life story interviews in an effort to understand more about the Cambodian genocide. The film explores what it takes to overcome extreme circumstances and illustrates the impact of war as well as the resilience of humanity.
This event is to coincide with the exhibition 'Cambodia: Reflections of the Khmer Rouge'.
