Using the Khmer Rouge Tribunal as a starting point, Susanne Brandstätter’s documentary THE FUTURE’S PAST (2012, 91 min) takes a deep look into the lives of young Cambodians on the brink of adulthood. As the trial accusing a perpetrator of the Pol Pot regime progresses, it becomes a catalyst for a new generation of Cambodians questioning their parents, families, and neighbors about the inhumanities their nation has suffered.
