When Dr. Haing S. Ngor was forced into labor camps by the Khmer Rouge, little did he know he would escape after four years of torture and be called upon to recreate his experiences in a film that would earn him an Academy Award. For the Chinese-Cambodian doctor, “nothing has shaped my life as much as surviving the Pol Pot regime.” Some 20 years later, Dr. Ngor was gunned down in a Los Angeles Chinatown alley.
