Exterminate all these brutes: Raoul Peck goes back to the origins of racism

Exterminate all these brutes is a journey in time that radically revisits the history of European colonialism, of America to Africa. Raoul Peck (nominated for the Oscars for I Am Not Your Negro, awarded by a César and a Bafta) is organizing an implacable dramatic structure, made up of archive images and scripted sequences embodied by actor Josh Hartnett (Pearl Harbor) while guiding us, using a personal, visual and literary narrative, through the darkest hours of humanity until today. In four episodes, the filmmaker deconstructs the making and silences of history, this story whose West has constantly twisted realities. It updates, without compromise, by exploiting the very riches of cinema, the ideology of white supremacy and racism, forcing the spectator to rethink his own intimate and official history.

HBO and Arte France present a series of 4 episodes, written and directed by Raoul Peck, produced by Raoul Peck, Rémi Grellety and Velvet Film.

Broadcast: February 1st at 8.50 pm on ARTE
