How the dictatorship of Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge affected the lives of
Cambodian people
After watching the film The Killing Fields in class, complete one of the
following activities.
- Make a mini book telling Dith Pran's story. How did the Khmer Rouge and Pol
Pot's government affect his life?
- "What happens next?" Use your imagination to describe what might have
happened next in Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge and Pol Pot (at least one page).
- Interview Dith Pran. Describe how he was affected by the actions of the Khmer Rouge and Pol Pot.
What were his feelings?
- Make up a coded message written by Dith Pran to Sydney while he is in
captivity about his experiences and how they affected his life.
Let a friend try and decode it. Supply the answer on a separate sheet.
