He's probably best known for his investigative documentaries, about Cambodia and the Khmer Rouge which made his name, and many since ... for his impassioned defence of the Palestinian cause, for his criticism of the U.S. role in the world ... next week his first film for cinema The War On Democracy opens at Academy Cinemas in Auckland.
