This film exposes the nightmare of the revolution unleashed by Pol Pot’s Khmer Rouge after their victory in 1975. It explains the paranoia and provocation’s that led to the Vietnamese invasion; the famine, exodus and grinding war of resistance that followed; the struggle for peace in Kampuchea that continues to the present day … Cambodia/Kampuchea draws on unique propaganda film and archival material from the Khmer Rouge, Vietnam and other sources.
