Notes for an African Oresteia
directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini. Italy, 1970, 73 min.
Pasolini would have liked to produce a film on the problems of Third World countries but he simply never got round to it. What we do have is this extraordinary documentary on the problems of post-colonial Africa, treading in the footsteps of the continent's archaic civilisation as it evinces the need to be brought into the modern world.
