The Perpetrator's Mise-En-Scène: Language, Body, and Memory in the Cambodian Genocide
JPR The Perpetrator’s mise-en-scène: Language, Body, and Memory in the Cambodian Genocide Vicente Sánchez-Biosca Abstract: Rithy Panh’s film S-21. The Khmer Rouge Killing Machine (2003) was the result of a three- year shooting period in the Khmer Rouge centre of torture where perpetrators and victims exchanged experiences and re-enacted scenes from the past under the gaze of the filmmaker’s camera. Yet, a crucial testimony was missing in that puzzle: the voice of the prison’s director, Kaing Guek Eav, comrade Duch. When the Extraor- dinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) were finally established in Phnom Penh to judge the master criminals of Democratic Kampuchea, the first to be indicted was this desk criminal. The filmDuch, Master of the Forges of Hell (Panh, 2011) deploys a new confrontation – an agon, in the terminology of tragedy – between a former perpetrator and a former victim, seen through cinema language. The audiovisual document registers Duch’s words and body as he develops his narrative, playing cunningly with contrition and deceit. The construction of this narrative and its deconstruction by Panh can be more fully understood by comparing some film scenes with other footage shot before, during and after the hearings. In sum, this ‘chamber film’ permits us to analyse two voices: that of the perpetrator, including his narrative and body language; and the invisible voice of the survivor that expresses itself through editing, sound effects, and montage. Keywords: Perpetrator, audiovisual testimony, body language, cinema, Khmer Rouge, Cambodia Gémir, pleurer, prier est également lâche. Fais énergiquement ta longue et lourde tâche Dans la voie où le Sort a voulu t’appeler.

The Bophana Audiovisual Resource Centre and the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC)1
Chapter 5 Showing now: The Bophana Audiovisual Resource Centre and the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC)1 Rachel Hughes The Bophana Centre is an audiovisual archive, a training centre and a venue for free film screenings in the centre of Phnom Penh, capital of Cambodia. The centre was founded in 2006 by two Cambodian film-makers, Rithy Panh and Pannakar Ieu.2 In the same year, the United Nations–supported Khmer Rouge Tribunal – formally the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) – was also established in Phnom Penh. Although vastly different initiatives, the organisation and tribunal share a concern to work towards some form of justice for victims of Khmer Rouge crimes and to foster dialogue about how to constitute a better present and future in light of this and other historical conflicts in the country. This chapter is based in fieldwork conducted in and around the ECCC between late 2011 and early 2017. It introduces the work of the Bophana Centre as a unique Cambodian organisation and critically explores its relationship to the ECCC in the wider context of what is generally termed Cambodian civil society. It argues that the practices fostered at Bophana are ontologically and epistemologically at variance with transitional justice theory and practice. The creative labour of Bophana’s film- and app-makers is cultural, material and relational. These kinds of practices have seen Bophana play a key role in the outreach and reparation activities of the ECCC, and in turn has changed the nature of these activities. Ten years after its inception, Bophana is a relatively large and well-organised NGO, with both international and Cambodian-based donors and upwards of 25 paid staff.

The Missing Picture - Film Review, Director: Rithy Panh, Documentary Cambodia/France, 2013 Reviewed by Lior Zylberman Translated by María Belén Riveiro “In the middle of life, childhood returns (…) I seek my childhood like a lost picture”, those are the opening words pronounced by Rithy Panh in The Missing Picture (L’image manquante). His film is focused solely on recovering that loss. However, we will soon realize that his childhood was not lost. The Khmer Rouge took it away from him between 1975 and 1979, in his native Cambodia. Rithy Panh was born in Phnom Penh in 1964. At the age of 11, he had to abandon his birthplace. His family, like many others in every city, was displaced to the ‘rehabilitation’ camps in a forced evacuation.

Southeast Asian Cinemas Research Network
Southeast Asian Cinemas Research Network Symposium: “Archives, Activism, Aesthetics” Maohui Deng (University of Manchester) ‘Wandering Across Time: Pasts and the Present in Singapore Cinema’ This presentation argues that the trope of wandering in films about dementia offers the potential for a nuanced articulation of issues surrounding memory in relation to cinema’s capacity to shape national narratives. Specifically, I will use Boo Junfeng’s 2015 short film Parting to explore the ways in which Singapore cinema uses the trope of the person living with dementia wandering to enter and traverse the nation’s discursive sphere of history and historiography. Focusing on the temporal collision/coalescence experienced by the person living with dementia, I first explore the ways in which wandering blurs the line between the past and the present in Parting, arguing that in traversing space, the person living with dementia is also traversing time. Then, I suggest that the case of people living with dementia wandering in Singapore cinema adopts a specific point of view that is emblematic of the nation’s wider issues of forgetting and remembering, which takes on a particular inflection that results in an architectural environment that has little or no history attached to it. Finally, I argue that the trope of wandering in Parting works to subtly reshape Singapore’s narrative of national vulnerability that is harnessed by the government to justify its authority. Biography MaoHui Deng is a third year PhD candidate at the University of Manchester, where he is researching into issues of time and dementia in cinema. He is also the Postgraduate Representative for the British Association of Film, Television and Screen Studies (BAFTSS) and is a Board Member of the Insight Film Festival.

Silence and Voice in Khmer Rouge Mug Shots by Michelle Caswell a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fu
Archiving the Unspeakable: Silence and Voice in Khmer Rouge Mug Shots By Michelle Caswell A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Library and Information Studies) at the UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN MADISON 2012 Date of final oral examination: 3/20/12 The dissertation is approved by the following members of the Final Oral Committee: Christine Pawley, Professor, Library and Information Studies Kristin Eschenfelder, Professor, Library and Information Studies Alan Rubel, Assistant Professor, Library and Information Studies Michele Hilmes, Professor, Media and Cultural Studies Anne Gilliland, Professor, Information Studies, UCLA ii ABSTRACT: ARCHIVING THE UNSPEAKABLE: SILENCE AND VOICE IN KHMER ROUGE MUG SHOTS Michelle Caswell Under the Supervision of Professor Christine Pawley at the University of Wisconsin Madison Using theoretical frameworks from archival studies, anthropology, and cultural studies, this dissertation traces the social life of a collection of mug shots taken at the notorious Tuol Sleng Prison in Cambodia and their role in the production of history about the Khmer Rouge regime. It focuses on three key moments in the social life of the mug shots: the moment of their creation; their inclusion in archives; and their use by survivors and victims’ family members in establishing narratives about the Khmer Rouge. The dissertation explores the ways in which silences were encoded in each of these moments, how the meaning of these records changes depending on their context, and how their reuse creates an infinite layering of the archive. The first chapter outlines the key theoretical and methodological frameworks employed, namely Trouillot’s conception of silences and the production of history, the records continuum model, and the social life of objects approach.
