Angelina Jolie took her six children with her as she made her first red carpet appearance since splitting from Brad Pitt.
The ‘Maleficent’ actress was joined by her kids – Maddox, 15, Shiloh, 10, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, and eight-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox – at the film premiere of ‘First They Killed My Father’ in Siem Reap, Cambodia.
Speaking at the premiere, which was held at the Terrace of the Elephant in the Angkor Wat complex, she said: "I cannot find words to express what it means to me that I was entrusted with telling part of the story of this country.
"This film was not made to focus on the horrors of the past, but to celebrate the resilience, kindness and talent of the Cambodian people. Most of all, this film is my way of saying thank you to Cambodia. Without Cambodia I may never have become a mother. Part of my heart is and will always be in this country. And part of this country is always with me: Maddox."
And Maddox – who was born in Cambodia – and his little sister Shiloh also spoke to the audience gathered at the premiere.
He said: "Thank you everyone for attending tonight. We finally made it. It’s a great honour to present this film to all of you, and to stand by my mother and my family. And now I’d like to introduce my little sister Shiloh, as she has something to say."
Whilst Shiloh spoke in Khmer, the country’s official language: "My name is Shiloh and I love Cambodia."
The premiere was attended by King Norodom Sihamoni and Queen Mother Norodom Monineath Sihanouk, who posed for a photo with Jolie and her family, Us Weekly magazine reports.
Locals were also allowed to see the film for free and 30-year-old resident Cheany Nem hoped to secure a spot to see the movie but was unlucky this time.
They said: "Me, like a lot of young people, want to know what happened during the Khmer Rouge. My mum is older so knows the story. I heard from her what happened but i wanted to know for myself.
"When I was young I learned about the Khmer Rouge from school. Learning about it made me feel hurt and that makes me want to come see the movie."
