The Look of Silence Page #5
I'm not here to harm you...
but to reveal...
the true history.
All this time, history
has been distorted.
The people you killed had no religion.
It's a lie.
It's only propaganda,
to give religious people like you
an excuse to kill.
"Communists have sex with each other's wives"...
It's a lie.
It's propaganda!
But you're talking politics again!
It's bad!
Joshua, stop filming!
Why do you always talk about politics?
Always politics!
Why are they moving?
There's a butterfly inside.
- Was your tooth pulled yesterday?
- Yes.
- Was it loose?
- No.
- How did they pull it?
- With pliers.
And?
And...
And... I don't know.
"Mom!"
"Is that you, Ramli?"
"Have you come back?" "Yes, mom".
"Come here, mom."
I kissed him.
I took off his clothes.
He was covered with blood.
He was ripped open..
"Mom, can I have coffee?"
But when the water boiled,
they came to take him away.
They said they'd
take him to the hospital.
Of course they weren't
taking him to the hospital!
After all, he was
running away from them.
I kissed him...
"Goodbye, mom"...
"They won't let me
come with you, Ramli".
Pray that the killers' children suffer.
Their children and grandchildren.
Pray...
...they get killed.
May they suffer...
The ones who killed you...
Your long, wavy hair...
Your soft cheeks...
So pleasing to the eyes...
Are you married yet?
Dad?
How old are you?
- How?
- How old are you??
Now?
Yes. How old are you?
I'm...
- Dad?
- Approximately...
16 or 17 years old.
- You're 16?
- Yes.
I'm 44.
So how can you be 16?
What?
I'm 44.
how can you be 16?
Commander of Snake River death squads
Amir Siahaan
Maybe we can start with...
With what happened?
We exterminated communists for
3 months, day and night.
We'd take them two miles from here.
We'd dig a hole
and bury them alive.
We got lists of the prisoners who
How many people did you sign off?
About...
...500-600 people.
Because this is...
an international issue,
we should be given...
We should be rewarded
with a trip to America
If not by airplane,
a cruise will do.
We deserve it!
We did this because
America taught us to hate communists.
The wall that separate us, my love...
It's a curse we can't avoid...
I wish it wouldn't come between us.
But please don't go...
Stay with me, my love.
You're a leader in this community...
Yes.
and you're very wealthy.
Did you become rich...
from what you did?
I thank God...
I have many wealthy friends,
who helped me...
because of our heroic struggle.
