Review of Music in the Killing Fields: Daran Kravanh

This piece is well produced with a good mix of voice-overs, interviews, and music. I especially appreciate the mood created by the layering of the music behind the telling of this man's story. The quote "The animals came to save his life..." really perked up my ears, as life on-the-run in the minefield invested jungle is described in ear-numbing detail. As sad as this story is, it still has an uplifting feel to it.
