The Act Of Killing (18+)

Denmark, 2012, colour, 159 min.
Director: Joshua Oppenheimer
Anwar Congo and his friends have been dancing their way through musical numbers, twisting arms in film noir gangster scenes, and galloping across prairies as yodelling cowboys. Their foray into filmmaking is celebrated on television - even though Anwar Congo and his friends are mass murderers.
