Ethics & Film: The Act of Killing

Ethics & Film: Lights, Camera, Ethics!

The Act of Killing poster (2012 film)

Executive produced by Errol Morris (The Fog Of War) and Werner Herzog (Grizzly Man), The Act of Killing examines a country where killers are celebrated as heroes and the filmmakers challenge unrepentant death squad leaders to re-enact their real-life mass-killings in the style of the American movies they love. The hallucinatory result is a cinematic fever dream, an unsettling journey deep into the imaginations of mass-murderers and the shockingly banal regime of corruption and impunity they inhabit.
