Not docs, but flicks. I feel like I've run out of them. Any language, any era is fine.
I will also accept 👁 movies, as I feel like they live in the same space. Honestly I think 👁 movies are left as well, as they're ultimately about how capital operates
The Battle of Algiers.
I rewatched it a few months ago. It's good, but honestly I think Pontecuervo's Burn and Ogro are even better
From the same director: Quemada.
About the decolonization of a fictional Portuguese colony.
The English title is Burn!, and I think it's fantastic. :parenti: talks about it, about a film that actually discusses how and why imperialism works. He draws a distinction between it and Ghandi, as the latter never acknowledges why the Brits were occupying India in the first place.
Yh also how was it acceptable even at the time for Ghandi to be played by a white englishman in that flick?
Ben Kingsley is half Indian :shrug-outta-hecks:
Damn I had no idea. Stand corrected. More the fool me.
Yeah, I mean he's from different caste so it's not all good but could have been worse

Yeah of course. So has racism, that doesn't mean we should ignore race.
