Trailer for the documentary Red Wedding.
Between 1975 and 1979, at least 250,000 women were forced into marriages by the Khmer Rouge. Sochan Pen is a 48 year old poor woman farmer. At the age of 16, she was forced to marry a Khmer Rouge soldier. She tried to resist but the Khmer Rouge ordered her husband to rape her. Since then, she has lived with the shame, confiding in no one.
Now Sochan has decided to bring her case to the international tribunal set up to try former Khmer Rouge leaders. Will her participation in the trial give her the hope that justice will be done? Will telling her story bring her peace of mind?
Red wedding is the story of a survivor who pits her humanity against an ideology and a system designed to annihilate people like her.
