Exclusive Clip: The Act of Killing

The Act of Killing follows Anwar Congo, one of the men responsible for the Indonesian genocide in the 1960s. Documentary filmmaker Joshua Oppenheimer provides Anwar Congo with an opportunity to make a motion picture about his own experiences, giving the man an opportunity to revisit the horrifying atrocities and dramatize them from his own, eerily skewed perspective.

Blu-Ray Review: Witney Seibold says The Act of Killing is “unlike any other movie.”

In the above clip, Anwar Congo revisits one of the locations of his mass murders, and playfully reveals how he solved what was to him an important problem: reducing the amount of blood he had to clean up afterwards. Unbelievable, and all the moreso because it actually happened.

The Act of Killing, produced by Werner Herzog and Errol Morris, is now available on DVD and Blu-ray.
