This actualizing process is based upon circulating usage of intolerable images that are a matter of dispositif of visibility. Panh’s mission to actualize the past experience reconstructs a counter-memory of the genocidal event in the present. The documentary is narrated by Neil Patrick. I will do this by interpreting Rity Panh’s film through Jacques Rancière’s writings on aesthetics and politics. Through a Dog’s Eyes, premiering Apat 8 PM ET/7 PM CT (check local listings), will have you seeing dogs in a whole new light. The aim of the paper is to discuss the temporal aspects of the individual and the communal memory – trauma, forgetfulness and amnesia – related to experiencing and representing the genocide. This liberates the affects and records the dehumanization transition through words, gestures, and reactions. Panh reverses the gaze of the camera to perpetrators: guards repeat and undergo the past events in simulation. '21' is the fact-based story about six MIT students who were trained to become experts in card counting and subsequently took Vegas casinos for millions in winnings. Thus Panh puts discourse and the bodies of the survivors and former Khmer Rouges guards in action via reconstructing the intolerable spectacle of Tuol Sleng prison, and making them both react to various sorts of archives and perform the past events in the present. He is best known to English speakers for two documentary films, S-21: The Khmer Rouge Killing Machine and The Missing Picture, the latter of which won Un. With Jim Sturgess, Kevin Spacey, Kate Bosworth, Aaron Yoo. In a film S21: The Khmer Rouge Killing Machine (2003) director Rity Panh followed Lanzmann’s insights but deviated in his insistence not to oppose witnesses to archives for that would have been to miss the functioning of the killing machine inlaid in the discursive apparatus and the filing system. Claude Lanzmann’s film Shoah (1985) made a pivotal turn in the representation of genocide: Lanzmann chose to represent the machine rather than its victims, and made the film in the present. Panhs documentary reassembles the living memory ofDuchs S-21 by bringing together two of its surviving victims with a group of its surviving prison guards. The ambivalence of the eyewitness testimony of the spectacles of horror has often been problematic field of study.
