Join us for a film screening of Peter Bate's controversial documentary as he stages an imaginary trial of King Leopold II of Belgium, dramatizing how he turned Congo into his private colony between 1885 and 1908. Under Leopold's control, Congo became a gulag labor camp of shocking brutality, with families held hostage, workers starved to death, and children's hands chopped off as punishment for late deliveries. While the Belgian government has denounced Bate's film as a "tendentious diatribe", it is widely agreed today that the first Human Rights movement was spurred by what happened in that African nation. (English, French and Flemish with English subtitles)
"...reveals a staggering human rights violation and a vivid portrait of a cruel and amoral forerunner of the global corporations of today who are ravaging the economies of Third World countries and leaving the poor worse off than ever before."
