Lumumba (2000)

Storyline

  The true story of the rise to power and brutal assassination of the  formerly vilified and later redeemed leader of the independent Congo,  Patrice Lumumba. Using newly discovered historical evidence,  Haitian-born and later Congo-raised writer and director Raoul Peck  renders an emotional and tautly woven account of the mail clerk and beer  salesman with a flair for oratory and an uncompromising belief in the  capacity of his homeland to build a prosperous nation independent of its  former Belgium overlords. Lumumba emerges here as the heroic  sacrificial lamb dubiously portrayed by the international media and led  to slaughter by commercial and political interests in Belgium, the  United States, the international community, and Lumumba's own  administration; a true story of political intrigue and murder where  political entities, captains of commerce, and the military dovetail in  their quest for economic and political hegemony.
