Description

On 17 April 1975, the Khmer Rouge armies defeated the Lon Nol regime and took Cambodian capital Phnom Penh, dispersing its more than two million inhabitants to a life of hard agricultural labour in the countryside. During the next four years, the Khmer Rouge - headed by Pol Pot - terrorised the population. Along with haunting landscapes, the stark, powerful portraits in War Remnants of the Khmer Rouge portray those who suffered greatly under the genocide of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia.
