Things may, however, be starting to change, especially following the release three years ago of Joshua Oppenheimer’s extraordinary documentary film, The Act of Killing. Oppenheimer records, in meticulous and horrifying detail, a group of former death-squad leaders re-enacting the murders they committed – not, at least initially, in any spirit of confession or remorse, but rather to portray themselves as the heroes of a necessary process of national purification.
但是，事情可能正在发生改变，特别是在三年前约书亚·奥本海默（Joshua Oppenheimer）制作的杰出纪录片《杀戮行为》（The Act of Killing）播出之后。奥本海默一丝不苟地记录了令人震惊的细节，一群前屠杀领导人重新演绎了他们犯下的杀戮行为——至少一开始没有带着任何坦白或懊悔的精神，而是将自己描述为净化国家的必经过程中的英雄。
