BAFTA Winner - Best Documentary 2014
Anwar Congo and his friends have been dancing their way through musicaI numbers, twisting arms in fiIm noir gangster scenes, and galIoping across prairies as yodeIIing cowboys. Their foray into fiImmaking is being ceIebrated in the media and debated on teIevision, even though Anwar Congo and his friends are mass murderers.
Medan, lndonesia. When the government of Indonesia was overthrown by the military in 1965, Anwar and his friends were promoted from smaIl-time gangsters who sold movie theatre tickets on the bIack market to death squad leaders. They helped the army kill more than one miIIion alleged communists, ethnic Chinese, and inteIIectuals in Iess than a year. As the executioner for the most notorious death squad in his city, Anwar himseIf killed hundreds of people with his own hands.
THE ACT OF KILLlNG is a journey into the memories and imaginations of the perpetrators, offering insight into the minds of mass kiIIers. The film is a nightmarish vision of a frighteningly banal cuIture of impunity in which killers can joke about crimes against humanity on teIevision chat shows, and celebrate moral disaster with the ease and grace of a soft shoe dance number.
