The vitals:
7:00 ~ Doors
7:30 ~ THE ACT OF KILLING

A complex, beautiful, and deeply unsettling portrait of the evil that ordinary people can commit, it stands as a masterpiece of documentary filmmaking. Endorsed by two of the greats—Errol Morris and Werner Herzog—the film explores the mass killings in Indonesia carried out under a brutal political regime. What makes it so singular is its form: the perpetrators themselves reenact their atrocities for the camera using a variety of genres. What begins as a grotesque display of pride slowly unravels into a devastating confrontation with guilt, forcing both subjects and viewers to reckon with the weight of complicity and memory.
