En Phnom-Penh, en 1973, una sociedad cosmopolita de diplomáticos, refugiados y periodistas se agita. Entre ellos, dos hombres apasionados por la verdad: Schanberg, el reportero del "New York Times", y Dith Pran, un camboyano sereno y tenaz. Dos años después, los Jemeres Rojos entran triunfalmente en la ciudad desprotegida. La embajada estadounidense se retira en medio del pánico. La represión salvaje se organiza y la odio toma el control. A pesar del peligro, Schanberg y Pran se empeñan en ser testigos hasta el último momento. Los extranjeros son evacuados, mientras Pran es encarcelado. En los campos de Pol Pot, el joven camboyano inicia su propia caída al infierno, enfrentándose a la delación, la hambruna, las masacres y los asesinos de doce años. Sin embargo, Pran pertenece a la estirpe de aquellos que sobreviven.

George, a disillusioned academic, and Martha, his caustic wife, have just come home from a faculty party. When a handsome young professor and his mousy wife stop by for a nightcap, an innocent night of fun and games quickly turns dark and dangerous. Long-buried resentment and rage are unleashed as George and Martha turn their rapier-sharp wits against each other, using their guests as pawns in their verbal sparring. By night's end, the secrets of both couples are uncovered and the lies they cling to are exposed. Considered by many to be Albee's masterpiece, "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" is a "brilliantly original work of art -- an excoriating theatrical experience, surging with shocks of recognition and dramatic fire" ("Newsweek").
