Hamilton discusses a history of genocide outside Europe and examines its treatment in the documentaries of Cambodian-born filmmaker Rithy Panh. She explores Panh's strategy of re-enacting the past with victims and perpetrators at sites of atrocity such as the former Tuol Sleng Interrogation Centre. This has profound implications and raises questions about the role of the director in reconstructing painful experiences
