“The Act of Killing” did many great things, for Indonesia and for Indonesian cinema. The first thing is, it put Indonesia on the map, in the film world and particularly in the documentary world.” “The Act of Killing” put Indonesia on the map in a very interesting way, but also in a very startling way. It’s in your face, it’s gruesome, it’s dark, it’s depressing. It depicts a very dark side of Indonesia, that as we know, isn’t all of Indonesia.” “The Act of Killing” is so important. But it gives a very specific view of Indonesia. And what Josh did with the act of killing is really a gift to this county, because it’s a wake-up call. I’ve been a very vocal fan and supporter of “The Act of Killing.” It’s not only an important film for Indonesia, but it’s one of the most important documentary films ever made.” Daniel Ziv Talks ‘Jalanan,’ ‘The Act of Killing’ and Hipsters thejakartaglobe/features/daniel-ziv-talks-jalanan-act-killing-hipsters
