Angelina Jolie, Son Maddox Co-Produces Human Rights Activist’s Memoir Entitled “First They Killed My Father”
The American actress Angelina Jolie and her son Maddox Jolie-Pitt has co-produced a human rights activist’s memoir entitled “First They Killed My Father”.
Angelina Jolie-Pitt has directed a Netflix original movie entitled “First They Killed My Father,” which was launched last September 15, 2017. Her son Maddox was also among the executive producers.
The film was an adaptation of Cambodian author and human rights activist Loung Ung’s history about the 1975 to 1978 deadly Khmer Rouge regime.
The movie portrays the devotion and spirit of Loung and her family in struggling just to stay together during the reign of Khmer Rouge for years.
The story was narrated through the eyes of Loung from the age of five when Khmer Rouge first came to power until the latter became nine years old, but the audience could not easily conclude on how will the story ends.
The Netflix original film “First They Killed My Father” was directed and produced by Angelina Jolie together with Cambodian director and producer Rithy Panh, director of the Oscar-nominated “The Missing Picture.”
Loung Ung, Maddox Jolie-Pitt, Adam Somner (“Bridge of Spies”), Michael Vieira (“By the Sea”), and Charles Schissel (“The Prestige”) were the executive producers of the film.
Academy Award winner Anthony Dod Mantle (“Slumdog Millionaire”) has directed the photography.
