With time, the most entertaining stories can become particularly negative.

The completely absurd exploitation of Africa over several centuries or even millennia as a provider of goods for the Western states of Indo-European people has led to all sorts of crimes against humanity. Europe, the Europeans, even those who emigrated to the Americas, extracted from Africa humans as chattel slaves and took them across the Atlantic to be slaves on plantations.  Then they extracted all sorts of minerals or other raw materials, which they transported to Europe to develop European societies and economies. Further down the line, they captured and exported all sorts of wild animals to use them, in one way or other, as essential for the entertainment of the European Caucasians (the strange name used by Americans to speak of white people).

And they even turned Africa into a vast slave camp where all the native populations were reduced to be the slaves of the colonializing Europeans, the “mondele” as they call them in  Lingala, a word that is not exactly nice with Europeans or white Americans.

The question with this film is, why did they bring it out of its locked-up cabinet where it should have remained? Hollywood has a logical mind that logic itself does not understand, certainly not as being rational.
