Description
This film examines the Khmer Rouge regime from a political standpoint, bringing to light how Prince Sihanouk survived the genocide, and became a pawn in the hands of Pol Pot. While he stood with the Vietnamese in 1969, against US imperialism and influence, in 1979, he appeared in the UN Security Council claiming that the Vietnamese liberation of Cambodia was worse than the Pol Pot regime. How did Sihanouk and his family survive this regime, even though he was removed from his position of head of State and placed under house arrest by the Khmer Rouge? The reason is that Mao Se Tung ordered the Khmer Rouge not to kill Sihanouk and his wife and children, thereby making them the only survivors of the royal family. While the Khmer Rouge was close to China, forces such as the Moulinaka at the Thai border with Cambodia which came to rise after 1979, asked for support from the United States.
