Lumumba

Scheduled Day: 
Friday June 8
Scheduled Hour: 
2200

"My main goal," Peck explains, "was neither to idealize Lumumba as a hero nor to denounce the CIA, the UN, and Belgium for their roles in his death. It was to make a film that would be of use to the future of Africa and the third world because it showed the mechanism of power. And for that, you have to put everything on the table, including the divisions among the Congolese themselves that allowed external influences to get power."
