The Killing Fields - Schreiendes Land (1984)
Der amerikanische Reporter Sydney Schanberg berichtet für die „New York Times“ aus Kambodscha über den Krieg im benachbarten Vietnam. Der einheimische Dolmetscher Dith Pranh ist ihm nicht nur ein unentbehrlicher Helfer, sondern inzwischen auch ein guter Freund geworden. Als sich die Amerikaner 1975 überstürzt zurückziehen und die Roten Khmer die Macht übernehmen, versuchen sie verzweifelt, das Land zu verlassen. Zwar können sie sich aus der Gewalt der Rebellen befreien und in die französische Botschaft flüchten, doch nur Schanberg darf ausreisen. Pran muss zurückbleiben und wird in eines der gefürchteten Reisfeld-KZs verschleppt …
