Concerning violence : nine scenes from the anti-imperialistic self-defense / a Story production ; a co-produced by Louverture Films, Final Cut for Real, Helsinki Filmi, Sveriges Television ; presented by Cinetic Media, Films Boutique ; Text by Frantz Fanon ; directed by Göran Hugo Olsson ; produced by Annika Rogell and Tobias Janson.
In a potent, arresting, and surprisingly emotional film, Olsson artfully elucidates Fanon's psychiatric and psychological analysis of dehumanizing effects of colonization on the individual and the nation. Fanon's theory is that the violence of colonialism must be met with greater violence to be defeated, as well as his vision and plea to reject the lust for colonial power and instead embrace a more creative and human society.
