- Who was Franz Fanon and what is his legacy today? Of yesterday and today, documentary maker Hassane Mezine gives voice to men and women who knew and shared with the flint warrior, according to Aimé Césaire's beautiful formula, privileged moments during the struggle but also in a family and friendly context. Fanon died in December 1961 but his reflection irrigated numerous revolutionary fields throughout the world. What view of this thinker and action man, have those who continue the fight today on different fronts against injustice and arbitrariness. The Director takes the viewer on a journey, from the homeland to the hubs of political and social struggles passing through the land where he rests. North and South of the world, activists talk of their struggle and reflect on their rapports with Frantz Fanon. The transmission is thus established between the historical dimension and the diverse contemporary spaces swept by the Fanonian breath. 2021, sixtieth anniversary of the death of frantz fanon 2021, sixtieth anniversary of the release of « the wretched of the earth » A pivotal year of many crises, 2021 is the sixtieth anniversary of Frantz Fanon's passing and of the publication of The Wretched of the Earth, his final work. Much more than a political testament, this ultimate book remains one of the fundamental works for the emancipation of the peoples of the South. The conditions prevailing in the early 1960s have certainly changed. But the contradictions between exploiting North and dominated South remain the norm of international relations; as unambiguously demonstrated by the situations in Africa and in Latin America. Liberal globalization and the use of a work force from the South have transposed, in new ways, into Europe and North America, the conflicts inherited from colonialism. Racism and xenophobia, islamophobia and negrophobia disfigure the wealthy societies of the North, eaten away by social injustice, the misery of many facing the boundless enrichment of predatory elites. Liberation, according to Fanon, occurs through the struggle against all forms of alienation, whether political or psychological. Colonialism and its new forms are the vectors of psychic suffering which is an integral part of the apparatus of imperialist domination. Fanon's diagnostic of these psychopathological dimensions as well as of the nature of politico-economic and cultural antagonisms has not lost its validity and its relevance, far from it. Contrary to what his detractors have hoped, the sharp gaze of the flint-Warrior, as Césaire called him, enlightens the debate on an unfinished process of decolonization.
