The Betrayal

documentary

Outstanding piece on the fate of a Laotian family after being abandoned by the US in the 70's. They were pariahs at home, emigrated to Brooklyn, and there their troubles continued.

Intimate, poetic, expressive...this was shot over a period of 23 years. Great care went into editing and selecting the footage.

One of the best.
