Nominated Documentary ‘The Look of Silence,’ to Air on PBS in 2016 Contacts: POV Communications: [email protected] Cathy Fisher, [email protected]; Eliza Licht, [email protected], 212-989-8121, Ext. 316 POV Pressroom: www.pbs.org/pov/pressroom POV Secures U.S. Broadcast Rights to Academy Award®-Nominated Documentary ‘The Look of Silence,’ to Air on PBS in 2016 Film by Joshua Oppenheimer is a companion to his Oscar®-nominated film about Indonesian genocide ‘The Act of Killing,’ presented by POV in 2014 New York, N.Y., Feb. 12, 2016 – POV (Point of View), PBS’s acclaimed documentary series, has acquired the U.S. broadcast rights to Joshua Oppenheimer’s The Look of Silence, it was announced today by POV Executive Producers Justine Nagan and Chris White. The film, nominated for a 2016 Academy Award® for Best Documentary Feature, will be broadcast during POV’s 29th season in 2016. This is POV’s second presentation of an Oscar®-nominated film by Oppenheimer; in 2014, the series aired The Act of Killing, winner of more than 70 international awards including a BAFTA Award for Best Documentary. The Look of Silence, winner of more than 50 awards including the Grand Jury Prize, Critics Prize and Human Rights Award at the 2014 Venice Film Festival, is the powerful companion piece to The Act of Killing. Through Oppenheimer’s footage of perpetrators of the 1965 Indonesian genocide, a family of survivors discovers how their son was murdered, as well as the identities of the killers. The documentary focuses on the youngest son, an optometrist named Adi, who decides to break the suffocating spell of submission and terror by doing something unimaginable in a society where the murderers remain in power: He confronts the men who killed his brother and, while testing their eyesight, asks them to accept responsibility for their actions. This unprecedented film, hailed as a “masterpiece” by The New York Times, initiates and bears witness to the collapse of 50 years of silence. The Look of Silence is a Final Cut for Real Production. It is executive produced by Errol Morris, Werner Herzog and André Singer, and produced by Signe Byrge Sørensen. The film is being released by Cinedigm for home entertainment and broadcast, and was presented theatrically by Drafthouse Films and Participant Media. “POV is privileged to bring the latest groundbreaking Joshua Oppenheimer film to American television audiences,” said Nagan. “On the heels of The Act of Killing, The Look of Silence takes an important step in uncovering genocide as one man displays incredible courage in confronting his brother’s killers. Oppenheimer tells jarringly personal, profoundly moving stories that open up universal dialogue. His latest film epitomizes the skilled storytelling that viewers look for in our series.” Produced by American Documentary, Inc., POV is American television’s longest-running independent documentary series.

  • Activism in Action: Screening the Act of Killing and the Look of Silence in the West
    . Volume 15, Issue 1 May 2018 Activism in action: Screening The Act of Killing and The Look of Silence in the West Kristi Kouchakji, McGill University/Concordia University, Canada Abstract: The Act of Killing (2012, Joshua Oppenheimer) and The Look of Silence (2014, Oppenheimer) are widely treated as a diptych. While both films have opened global discussion of Indonesia’s 1965 genocide, the affect and aesthetics at play, combined with the geographic and temporal distance of these events, give eurowestern viewers permission to avoid confronting eurowestern implication in these events. I argue that for these films to serve as activist programming in a eurowestern context, they should be considered as part of a triptych with The Globalisation Tapes, a 2002 union-activist video facilitated by Oppenheimer that explicitly connects eurowestern imperialism and Indonesian oppression. When seen after having viewed the first two films, these connections concretize the affect and outrage they generate, creating conditions for mobilizing viewers to take action as consumers and citizens to address the root causes of global injustice. Drawing on responses gathered during a study in which people watched all three films, this paper develops and builds on an argument for showing the films as a triptych, and for considering the activist potential inherent in a curatorial practice. Keywords: Activism, impact, Oppenheimer, programming, screening, curatorial practices, audience, subjectivity, archive, mobilization, affect. Introduction The Act of Killing (2012, Joshua Oppenheimer), in which perpetrators of Indonesia’s 1965 genocide lavishly re-enact their crimes as though they were scenes from American and Indonesian genre films, and The Look of Silence (2014, Oppenheimer), in which the brother of a man killed in the genocide confronts those responsible, are widely treated as a diptych.

Sinopsis Film Ketika pemerintah Indonesia digulingkan oleh militer pada tahun 1965, Anwar dan teman-temannya dipromosikan dari gangster kecil yang menjual tiket bioskop di pasar gelap menjadi pemimpin pencabut nyawa. Mereka membantu tentara membunuh lebih dari satu juta orang komunis, etnis Cina, dan intelektual dalam waktu kurang dari satu tahun. Sebagai algojo untuk skuad kematian paling terkenal di kotanya, Anwar sendiri membunuh ratusan orang dengan tangannya sendiri. Hari ini, Anwar dipuja sebagai ayah pendiri sebuah organisasi paramiliter sayap kanan yang tumbuh dari regu kematian. Organisasi ini begitu kuat sehingga para pemimpinnya termasuk menteri pemerintah, dan mereka dengan senang hati membanggakan segala hal mulai dari korupsi dan kecurangan pemilihan terhadap tindakan genosida, yaitu Pemuda Pancasila. Film dokumenter Jagal (The Act of Killing) adalah film kemenangan suatu pembunuh dan tentang masyarakat yang telah dibangunnnya. Tidak seperti Nazi atau Rwanda génocidaires, Anwar dan teman-temannya belum dipaksa oleh sejarah untuk mengakui bahwa mereka berpartisipasi dalam kejahatan tersebut. Sebagai gantinya, mereka telah menulis sejarah mereka sendiri, menjadi teladan bagi jutaan paramiliter muda dalam pemuda pancasila. Jagal (The Act of Killing) adalah kenangan dan imajinasi dari para pelaku kejahatan, dan Jagal (The Act of Killing) adalah visi mimpi buruk dari budaya menakutkan dangkal impunitas di mana pembunuh bisa bercanda tentang kejahatan terhadap manusia, dan merayakan bencana moral yang dengan mudah mereka rayakan dengan suatu tarian dansa.

  • Journey to the Academy Awards: an Investigation of Oscar-Shortlisted and Nominated Documentaries (2014-2016)
    Journey to the Academy Awards: An Investigation of Oscar-Shortlisted and Nominated Documentaries (2014-2016) PRELIMINARY KEY FINDINGS By Caty Borum Chattoo, Co-Director, Center for Media & Social Impact American University School of Communication | Washington, D.C. February 2016 OVERVIEW For a documentary filmmaker, being recognized by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences for an Oscar nomination in the Best Documentary Feature category is often the pinnacle moment in a career. Beyond the celebratory achievement, the acknowledgment can open up doors for funding and opportunities for next films and career opportunities. The formal recognition happens in three phases: It begins in December with the Academy’s announcement of a shortlist—15 films that advance to a formal nomination for the Academy’s Best Documentary Feature Award. Then, in mid-January, the final list of five official nominations is announced. Finally, at the end of February each year, the one winner is announced at the Academy Awards ceremony. Beyond a film’s narrative and technical prowess, the marketing campaigns that help a documentary make it to the shortlist and then the final nomination list are increasingly expensive and insular, from advertisements in entertainment trade outlets to lavish events to build buzz among Academy members and industry influencers. What does it take for a documentary film and its director and producer to make it to the top—the Oscars shortlist, the nomination and the win? Which film directors are recognized—in terms of race and gender?

  • The Look of Silence Discussion Guide
    www.influencefilmclub.com The Look of Silence Discussion Guide Director: Joshua Oppenheimer Year: 2014 Time: 103 min You might know this director from: The Globalisation Tapes (2002) The Act of Killing (2012) FILM SUMMARY In 2001, Joshua Oppenheimer set out to make a documentary about the struggles of Indonesian palm oil workers. Yet the more he understood about Indonesia, the more he understood that an entirely different beast was rearing its head. In his words, “I felt as though I’d wandered into Germany 40 years after the Holocaust, only to find the Nazis still in power.” With this knowledge, he spent the next 10 years investigating Indonesia’s 50-year-old secret. The first of the resulting films, THE ACT OF KILLING, boldly reveals the shocking mentality of the perpetrators of the 1965 Indonesian genocide, who are living as heroes. The follow up, THE LOOK OF SILENCE, unbuttons the victims from their caged-in trauma through one Adi Rukun. Born as a consolation to his mother’s grief over the loss of her son Ramli in the anti-communist purge, Adi can no longer live his life in darkening silence as his family and country struggle to swallow the pain and carry on, still under the thumb of the men who committed these acts decades earlier. With optometry case in hand, Adi confronts his brother’s killers, enduring the awkward, aching aftermath that follows. Faced with the humanity of their long-ago reign of terror, the killers are stunned into edgy ambivalence and frustration as we become uncomfortably aware of the extent of Rukun’s bravery in these confrontations.

  • Joshua Oppenheimer
    The Director Joshua Oppenheimer 56 57 JOSHUA OPPENHEIMER In 2012, a film was released called The Act of Killing in which death-squad leaders of the 1965 Indonesian genocide personally reconstructed their killings through surreal sequences and operatic set pieces. It was nominated for an Oscar, won a BAFTA and both Errol Morris and Werner Herzog fêted it as the most important documentary of the past decade. This year, its director Joshua Oppenheimer released The Look of Silence, which told the victims’ story in no less transcendental and upsetting terms. Both films have provoked a national debate in Indonesia, made heroes or pariahs of the participants and stamped a new form of documentary on the world. One which searches out poetic truth with the participation of its subjects: monsters made men, the voiceless given voice. You will never have seen anything like Oppenheimer’s films. Interview Joshua Bullock 58 59 Photographer © Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung Joshua Bullock: So how does a Texas-born documentary filmmaker end up and surrealness of it. We talked about how metaphor and surrealism work making films about historical genocide in Indonesia? in these films, with people who really had never seen a film before, apart from action movies on TV. It was an amazing three months, and it was how Joshua Oppenheimer: In the early 2000s I was asked to train a group of I learned Indonesian as well. The other thing the project did was introduce plantation workers who were trying to organise a union in the aftermath me to the first perpetrator I ever filmed, Sharman Sinaga, before The Act of of the Suharto military dictatorship to make their own film about their Killing project had even begun.

Also, I was able to complete this research with the help of professionals, friends, a loan, and luckily some research grants. The main setting for the video material is mostly the aforementioned house. I am in gratitude to architect Timo Jeskanen for designing our home, Rauhala. The most important people during the first few years of shooting the diary were the three families who were simultaneously building houses in Her- manonkimaa. I am especially thankful to the neighbours’ children who are now all adults. The Haarlas, Ahos, Lukinmaas, and later, in the 2000s the Kutvonens and Heikkinens formed a community, which helped me under- stand that there are two types of friends: those who like to be filmed and those who find it awkward.
