这部由电影制片人兼多媒体艺术家约翰·格里蒙普雷(代表作《双重特工》)创作的新纪录片堪称一部精心结构的电影随笔。影片以刚果及其首位民主选举的总理帕特里斯·卢蒙巴的谋杀为背景,融合了地缘政治、爵士音乐、冷战阴谋和殖民实践,是一部爆炸性的混合体。片中既有详尽的研究和数据,又在形式上绝对巧妙和自由。影片追踪了卢蒙巴的权力崛起以及殖民者对将国家控制权交给其公民的抵抗。同时,影片还记录了美国试图通过派遣爵士音乐家如妮娜·西蒙、杜克·艾灵顿、路易斯·阿姆斯特朗等人来影响该国的努力。这些音乐家来到刚果演奏,浑然不知他们不过是中情局阴谋的幌子。最终,这部影片充满了音乐和电影能量,同时对仍然拒绝被抹去的殖民幽灵发出了一声强烈的政治控诉“我控诉”。

Who really is Diabolik, the ruthless Italian comic book antihero? The final chapter of the Manetti Bros. adaptation sets out to find the answer. Taking a leap in time to the 1970s, a period of unrest marked by the Vallanzasca and Magliana gangs, student protests and street killings. The story begins with car chases and machine gun shots that leave innocent victims dead on the street. It’s not Diabolik pulling the trigger, as he has his own code of ‘professional’ ethics and only kills when necessary. Instead, it’s a gang of criminals responsible for the bloodshed, wreaking havoc in the city with gratuitous and unscrupulous violence. Captured by the gang, Diabolik and his nemesis, Inspector Ginko, find themselves locked in a cell with no way out.
A chamber orchestra is working out of a rundown theatre in Reykjavik. Financial hardship places a great strain on the band and the lead violinist, Sigrun. The annual grant from the city is coming to an end so the band hires a world renowned cellist in order to save the band. The media goes wild and money starts to flow to the band again. Too bad the cellist is not a very nice person – he is quite the assgrabber and a two faced cheater. Too late to fire the star and the grand concert that will save the band is about to begin when the cellist chokes to death – 15 minutes before the concert. The band decides to risk it all and play the concert with a dead solo artist – not really thinking about how to end such a macabre show.
