CONGO: WHITE KING, RED RUBBER, BLACK DEATH

ArtMattan Films is proud to launch a new DVD sale spotlighting powerful stories from history that have shaped the world we live in today. As part of our "History Through Film" collection, we invite you to rediscover compelling narratives and documentaries that bring to light untold truths, resistance, and resilience across the African Diaspora.

Our first featured release is a double DVD set including Congo: White King, Red Rubber, Black Death and Boma-Tervuren: The Voyage.

Congo: White King, Red Rubber, Black Death is a gripping exposé of King Leopold II’s brutal regime in the Congo, where millions perished under colonial rule cloaked as philanthropy.

Boma-Tervuren: The Voyage traces the horrific 1897 journey of Congolese people who were transported to Belgium to be displayed in a human zoo during the Brussels International Exposition. Through rare documents and personal accounts, it reveals the lasting trauma of this disturbing spectacle.

Together, these films provide a powerful and eye-opening historical journey, making this set a must-have for educators, students, and anyone interested in truth-telling through cinema.
