Film Club Mondo Cane presents: Africa Addio | Gateavisa
Africa Addio is a unique "testimony" about the brutal fighting and atrocities that followed in the wake of the European colonial men assortments on the African continent. Equipped with hand-held cameras and a small light aircraft in reserve, went guys behind Mondo Cane in three years around the continent and documented decolonization immediate consequences; genocide, murder of former colonizers and the systematic slaughter of vast amounts of animals in areas that were nature reserves.
The film deals with a serious problem: Could decolonization of sub-Saharan Africa happened in a better way? The filmmakers claim that the colonial powers of control followed by an abrupt retreat left large parts of Africa in chaos issue is still current, and the images captured possesses an almost surreal aesthetic beauty up in all their moral double-edged. Certain sequences (an absurd fox hunting, collection of crocodiles with balloon traps, one young zebra flown into the sunset) exceeds the things most people have seen or will see - regardless of genre. In another sequence we ever "live" from the genocide of Zanzibar, the only existing documentation of an event that cost over 5000 Arabs life.
Africa Addio is one of the most abashed films ever made. It has been condemned, censored and criminalized. It is undoubtedly racist, irresponsible immoral, shameless reactionary and excessively brutal. It is also, without blinking, one of the most accomplished and brilliant documentaries cedar point produced ever. A film that it is impossible to remain indifferent. A film that simply must be experienced.
Africa Addio "is a brutal, dishonest, racist film. It slanders a continent and at the same time diminishes the human spirit. And it does so to entertain us. "- Roger Ebert Wednesday 26 October at 19.00, Hjelms gate 3, Majorstua, Oslo
