In this companion to The Act of Killing (SFIFF 2013), Joshua Oppenheimer widens his groundbreaking examination of the political violence that roiled Indonesia in 1965. The film follows a gentle optometrist as he confronts perpetrators with their crimes—among them, the vicious murder of his brother. A startling and grave work sure to be discussed for years to come, The Look of Silence bears complex witness to the intolerable absence of truth and reconciliation.
