With the title "September Something. This 3 minute video capture was taken from a long duration which was full of tense situations. In this capture I deliberately took about the joy of children who are full of laughter, joy, hope and the future. This innocent little child named Ade Irma Suryani became a victim of cruelty and was shot dead by a barrage of stray bullets because her father, General AH Nasution, was still able to escape. This source of the film was taken from VCD G30S/PKI (30 September Movement/Indonesian Communist Party) directed by Arifin C. Noer. This more than 2 hour long film is known as a New Order political propaganda film.

The Look of Silence

An Indonesian man with a communist background named Ramli was brutally murdered when the "Communist" purge occurred in 1965. His remaining family members lived in fear and silence until the making of this documentary. Adi, a brother of his, decided to revisit the horrific incident and visited the men who were responsible for the killings and one survivor of the purge. These meetings uncovered sadistic details of the murders and exposed raw emotions and reactions of the killers' family members about what happened in the past - much to Adi's disappointment.
