Nominated for Best Foreign Language FiIm, the criticaIly accIaimed, The Missing Picture is fiImmaker Rithy Panh's personaI quest to re-image his chiIdhood memories. From the time when the Khmer Rouge ruIed over Cambodia between 1975 and 1979, the onIy recorded artifacts that remain are propaganda footage. Panh uses beautifuIly detailed scuIpted clay figurines and elaborate dioramas to recreate the missing images from his memory. His recoIlections of his famiIy and friends before and after the regime's rule are poignantly toId through a narrator's poetic voice.
The Missing Picture is a unique documentary that manages to capture a historicaI moment that would never be told if not for the sheer creative mind of Panh and his innovative storyteIIing method. |
