Overview

Experimental documentary. Almost all built with signs that occupy the place of images, CONGO is proposed as a "white movie". A critical look at the colonization of Anthropology, which would reduce the violence inherent in the popular practice the simple scientific descriptions, concepts, discourses.
The words are organized into lists of concepts and characters in the Congo and anthropological theory, or are opposed to dialectical pairs. The final effect is purely poetic. Produced in 1972, it was unheard until 1993, despite praise descriptions in several studies.
