NOTES

Title from title frames

After The Missing Picture (Un Certain Regard winner, Cannes and Oscar nominee for the Best Foreign Language Film in 2014), Rithy Panh continues his personal and spiritual exploration of Cambodia's Khmer Rouge era. His earlier films, S21: The Khmer Rouge Killing Machine and Duch: Master of the Forges of Hell, analyzed the mechanisms of the crime. GRAVES WITHOUT A NAME searches for a path to peace.<P>When a thirteen-year-old child, who lost the greater part of his family under the Khmer Rouge, embarks on a search for their graves, whether clay or on spiritual ground, what does he find there? And above all, what is he looking for? Spectral trees? Villages defaced beyond recognition? Witnesses who are reluctant to speak? The ethereal touch of a brother or sister's body as the night approaches? Graves Without a Name is a cinematic movie by a master filmmaker that reaches well beyond the story of a country to that which is universal. Official Selection at the **Venice Film Festival**, **Toronto International Film Festival**, and **Telluride Film Festival**
