If you loved Soleil O, try West Indies: The Fugitive Slaves of Liberty
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Med Hondo, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Soleil O, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What West Indies: The Fugitive Slaves of Liberty is
Roots without Alex Haley. The history of the West Indies unfolds on a slave ship built inside a Citroen factory. Song and dance become weapons charting the story of oppression, from enslavement to displacement. A singular, stagey, and Brechtian history lesson.
