West Indies: The Fugitive Slaves of Liberty
JAN 2, 1979 · 116 MIN · DIR. MED HONDO
Aboard a giant slave ship in an abandoned Citroën factory, the history of the West Indies is traced through several centuries of French oppression. The ship becomes a stage for the people to tell stories via song and dance—from their enslavement to their displacement in Metropolitan France.
