This article is part of an investigation about the representation of genocides in documentary cinema, in this instance I will be discuss about how the memory of the perpetrators has been presented. To do this, some background and problems about the subject will first be briefly reviewed; secondly, I will comment the representation strategies employed that I suggest to analyze the representation of the perpetrators; finally, I will focus on the participatory mode trough the analysis of the documentaries The Act of Killing (Joshua Oppenheimer, 2012) and The Look of Silence (Joshua Oppenheimer, 2014). There, in addition to think about the characteristics of this modality, we will analyze the memory that this strategy allows to set in motion.

Keywords : Documentary Cinema; genocide; perpetrators; modes; violence.
