"The series of photographs brought together in this publication is emblematic of Kim Hak's work and his personality. They tell us about a journey into memories, a journey bursting with a great tenderness despite the sufferings it awakens.

Through this collection of objects (and stories), and his way of linking them, Kim Hak leads us with subtlety to the intimacy of a collective history, a history that left him with scars on his soul, too. This story touches people's hearts far beyond the borders of Cambodia."
