Marathon rowing champion Rob Hamill will visit Masterton next month to speak ahead of the film, Brother Number One.
Mr Hamill will give a personal account of his travels to Cambodia to discover the story behind the torture and death of his brother, Kerry Hamill, by the Khmer Rouge.
Masterton Safe and Healthy Community Council manager Sandy Ryan said Mr Hamill was visiting at the council's invitation.
"We decided to run a New Zealand film as part of our Volunteer Recognition evening," she said.
After choosing Brother Number One, she called the director who suggested Mr Hamill might come down and give a presentation.
The acclaimed documentary explores the genocide, examining how and why nearly two million Cambodians could be killed by a fanatical regime.
Mrs Ryan said the value of having Mr Hamill tell his personal story adds background to the movie, but also gives us the framework for the current situation in Cambodia.
The documentary will screen on December 7, after Mr Hamill's talk at 6pm. Tickets are on sale at Wairarapa Reap House for $7 per person.

I let Khmer screw me; all Khmer officials, from top to bottom, screw Viet for free whether they be in Phnom Penh or on their TDY/Training/Visit in Vietnam (Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City etc...) They love Viet's food, they love Viet's ass...Viet is everywhere in Viet-Cambodia from farmer to technician, from nurse to doctor, from firefighter to engineer, from rubber plantation owner/worker to Hun Sen's political advisor and bodyguards including Angkor Wat's owner...You all name it and Viet is there...Khmer doesn't do squat nowadays...
Whether or not they surrender themselves to Viet, Khmer is now Viet (period.)
Hun Sen is just a dumb Viet-Khmer that can be disposed of anytime at just a blink of an eye!
Ms. Soap
P.s. Again, challenge me if all of you dumb Khmer can. We have millions of us (legally the majority) that will vote for Viet-Khmer candidate forever... Eat your heart out Sam Raingsy and Theary Seng or whoever thinks that you can de-vietnamize the Federation of Indochina now or anytime in the forseeable future...
KRT is just a show to entertain the world. We, Viet, are that good and smart.
KI-Media is yesterday news and ought to shut down for good now...or better yet, come kiss our Viet's ass now!!!
Can Khmer put up the second Killing fields to get rid of millions of legal Viet-Khmer citizen now???
Okay you dumb Khmer - put up or shut up while we, Viet, are domesticating you for the bright future of the Federation of Indochina!
Not to worry about the Chinese, they are just being proud and busy making money for themseves...
