An animated film, spliced in parts, with real documentary film of interviews with important subjects within the animated tale. Rizsard Kapuscinsky was an exceptionally gifted, brave and heroic reporter. He reported the facts and truth of the corrupt cold war slaughterhouse being waged by America and Russia in the African backyard of Angola. A war, which this film bio informs us of, where both sides - the MPLA and the NFLA - murdered millions and committed despicable atrocities!
The animated sections are in the English language and the actual documentary pieces are in native tongues; but there are subtitles available so that you know what is said. It makes for a gripping and most thoroughly interesting watch and, is presented in an almost comic style very polished looking animated style. There is no one sided reporting as it tells the tale of the misery caused by both side and both superpowers; a misery that endured for the Angolan people for 27 years.
