The Act of Killing - Trailer

Sorry for my lack of knowledge about history, but this is the story of who exactly?

after reading the synopsis it seems to be a movie where they create a movie about the Indonesia genocide/killing in the 60's but with one of the generals as the main caracter, so it makes him re-live what he did to those people 50 years ago.

The history between this killing is a party/force wanted to abolish communism party by doing a Coup d'état wich failed. I don't know more.
 
So the guy could have been a hero for overthrowing the communist government but turned into a criminal for killing innoncents.
