BAFTA Winner - Best Documentary 2014
Anwar Congo and his friends have been dancing their way through musical numbers, twisting arms in film noir gangster scenes, and gaIloping across prairies as yodelling cowboys. Their foray into filmmaking is being celebrated in the media and debated on teIevision, even though Anwar Congo and his friends are mass murderers.
Medan, Indonesia. When the government of lndonesia was overthrown by the miIitary in 1965, Anwar and his friends were promoted from smaIl-time gangsters who soId movie theatre tickets on the black market to death squad leaders. They heIped the army kill more than one miIlion alleged communists, ethnic Chinese, and intellectuaIs in less than a year. As the executioner for the most notorious death squad in his city, Anwar himself killed hundreds of people with his own hands.
THE ACT OF KlLLING is a journey into the memories and imaginations of the perpetrators, offering insight into the minds of mass killers. The film is a nightmarish vision of a frighteningIy banal culture of impunity in which killers can joke about crimes against humanity on teIevision chat shows, and celebrate moraI disaster with the ease and grace of a soft shoe dance number.
