Jean-Claude BARNY, 132 min, - France, Luxembourg, Canada
Freshly arrived as a doctor at the Blida psychiatric hospital in Algeria, Frantz Fanon immediately proposes using methods never seen before, nourished by humanist values that his colleagues head-on doubt. Despite criticism and reticence, he continues his work and is soon noticed by the FLN, who invites him to join their movement. As tensions between the French army and the FLN increase, Fanon finds himself caught in the crossfire and becomes involved in the fight for Algerian independence.
For his third feature film, Jean-Claude Barny delves into the life, writings and struggles of psychiatrist and essayist Frantz Fanon, focusing on the period he spent in Algeria, from 1953 to 1956, where his seminal thoughts on the violence of colonialism took root. An immersive biopic with sadly contemporary resonances..From ECHO.lu
