Ken Saro-Wiwa was a well-known Nigerian writer and activist who led a peaceful resistance movement against environmental racism practices by nigerian authorities and multinational oil companies in the Niger Delta, Nigeria. In 1995, along with eight other activists, he was tried by a fraudulent military court and sentenced to death. Through interviews with artists, activists and family members, the documentary presents its history, the impacts caused by the oil exploration in the Delta and the political and cultural relevance of artistic projects in London dedicated to its memory.

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
