#1 GOODBYE UNCLE TOM (1971) [above]
director: Paolo Cavara, Gualtiero Jacopetti ·
and Franco
Prosperi
Incredible! You will not believe what you are seeing! Shot in documentary
style, this film recreates the conditions of slavery in America. It's
so realistic that a riot broke out and shut down the theater on 42nd
Street in New York during its limited run in 1971. Due to major distribution
problems, this film has been virtually unseen in the USA since that
time. Now, fully restore from original negatives, it's back!

by rebels and refugees, plunders and poachers, mercenaries and murderers.
