I just saw this advertised for tonight, and it reminded me of Kracauer's article about the bourgeois disposition of Germans, and how unchanged it seems to be. I think it'd be an interesting film to see.
"Between 1904 and 1908, three quarters of the Herero people were killed, many in concentration camps, under German colonial rule. Not only does this documentary show that the German government was genocidal years before the Holocaust, but it also highlights an extremely overlooked tragedy in history. This genocide still impacts Harero today, as the descendants of the survivors are seeking reparations from the German government."
