A Western documentarian gives leaders of Indonesian death squads, now grandfathers and respected elders of paramilitary groups, funds to make a movie proudly re-enacting the massacres they committed as young gangsters.

A terrifying glimpse at the human mind's capacity to rationalize and normalize evil; the film is one of the most moral pranks ever pulled.
