Concerning Violence narrates the events of African nationalist and independence movements in the 1960s and 1970s which challenged colonial and white minority rule. The film is an archive-driven video essay based on author Frantz Fanon's 'The Wretched of the Earth,' covering the most daring moments in the struggle for liberation in the so-called 'Third World,' as well as an exploration into the mechanisms of decolonisation. Fanon's text, which was banned soon after publication more than 50 years ago, remains a major relevant tool for understanding and illuminating the neo-colonialism still happening today, as well as the reactions against it.
