France, 2021 (French)
US premiere
The documentary retells the all-too short life trajectory of Fanon (1925-1961), the Martinican psychiatrist whose militant actions and radical revolutionary thinking engaged the fundamental issues of racialized oppression around the world, moving from theorizations of blackness to colonialism, anti-colonial struggle, and decolonization.
