( We Come As Friends )
Hubert Sauper
2013 - 115 min - Non spécifié - Couleur - France, Autriche
"We Come As Friends" will be the second part of Hubert Sauper's cinema trilogy (slavery - colonisation - globalisation) in which Darwin's nightmare constitutes the third part. This film intends to illustrate colonisation as a human phenomenon in an explicit manner as well as in a metaphoric sense without suggesting simplified accusations or political propositions. It will not be a historical film since colonisation as well as slave trade are still happening today - in a modified way, a more industrial, massive and more global fashion than a hundred years ago.
