When the movie and then this interview was done, it had not even been 10 years since it all took place !! Pran was incredibly brave and his will to live for his family and his friend is what carried him.

Dith is a one of a kind human being in world history. What a true survivor.

[@nigelsheppard625]

Mr Dith as it is Pran's surname. Pran is his given name.

The interviewer asks silly questions

[@nigelsheppard625]

The only thing that ruins the film for me is that they used Imagine by John Lennon at the end of the film. Everything that Lennon sings about in the song as being the aspiration for humanity is actually what the Khmer Rouge instigated by force and terrorism in Cambodia. This is not a nice hippie idealistic song, it's a hard line Marxist anthem that inspires revolutionary agents to destroy the free world.

[@Mike-01234]

America Government secretly supported Khmer Rouge to counter the Vietnamese.

Everything in the lyrics?! Could you be more specific and exemplify a marxist part? At least one about being the owner of the means of production as a worker or something like that? Maybe you can't imagine there's no countries and no religions too. Maybe you just like to use the marxist card to justify Hiroshima. Who knows?
