  • Resumen

  • When you are born in Cambodia and work hard to get through medical school to be an OB/GYN you cannot imagine the horrors of a despotic dictator taking over your country and putting all intellectuals in work or prison camps. Haing Ngor pretended to be a cab driver to stay alive and had to stand by and not reveal his medical skill just to stay alive. In the face of torture and loss of most of his family he stayed alive and made it to a Red Cross outpost by crawling through thorns and eating scorpions to stay alive. Dr. Ngor could not have imagined he would one day be holding the cinematic worlds most prized possession in his hand: the Oscar for his exemplary work in the film "The Killing Fields," which is based on the life of a journalist/guide who helped American journalists get out alive. And turns out to be Dr. Ngor's story too.
