Frantz Fanon: Black Skin, White Mask explores for the first time on film one of the most influential theorists of the anti-colonial movements of our century. Fanon's two major works Black Skin, White Mask and The Wretched of the Earth were pioneering studies of the psychological impact of racism on both colonized and colonizer. Jean-Paul Sartre described Fanon as the figure "through whose voice the Third World finds and speaks to itself." This innovative film biography restores Fanon to his rightful place at the center of contemporary discussions of post-colonial identity.
