Film List
Filem ini adalah eskperimen terhadap pencarian image yang hilang tentang kekerasan yang dialami oleh Rithy Panh (sutradara) pada masa kecil di masa rezim militer Khmer Merah. Ia hanya menemukan arsip footage-footage yang diproduksi oleh rezim Khmer Merah, yang berisikan image propaganda yang menjanjikan sebuah masyarakat yang makmur di Kamboja. The Missing Picture bukan ingin menggantikan image yang hilang, tapi menciptakan image tentang proses pencarian image yang hilang itu sendiri. Ia menggunakan figur-figur patung kecil tanah liat bukan sebagai ganti dari ‘representasi’ terhadap masa lalunya, tetapi lebih sebagai image tentang trauma, kehilangan, testimony, dan pergulatan medium sebagai kontruksi realitas itu sendiri.
This film is an experiment on the search of lost images about the violence experienced by Rithy Panh (director) in his childhood during the Khmer Rouge military regime. He only found footage archives produced by the Khmer Rouge regime, which contains a promising propaganda image of a prosperous society in Cambodia. The Missing Picture does not want to replace the lost image, but creates an image about the process of searching the lost image itself. He uses small clay figures instead of ‘representations’ of his past, but rather as an image of trauma, loss, testimony, and the struggle of the medium as construction of reality itself.
