Synopsis



'Algiers Pan-African Festival' is a documentary shot in 1969 during the first edition of the Festival. William Klein follows the preparations of this "Opera from the Third World", the rehearsals, and the concerts. He blends images of interviews made with writers and advocates of the freedom movements with stock images, thus allowing him to touch on such matters as colonialism, neocolonialism, colonial exploitation, the struggles and battles of the revolutionary movements for independence, and African culture.
