Aimé Césaire: Le Prix de la Liberté
Aimé Césaire, born in 1913 in Basse-Pointe, joined Paris in the inter-war period to study there. It was at this time that the young West Indian understood the importance of talking about a black conscience and a cultural nationalism that united men. Then the writer, inventor of the concept of blackness, joined his island at the beginnings of the world conflict to teach letters. At the end of the war, carried by the hope of a change, Césaire, fervent anti-colonialist, is caught up in politics and becomes deputy of the Communist Party before founding the Progressive Party of Martinique (PPM). He will retain his mandate until 1993. Through fiction sequences and archive footage, we return to the paradoxical journey of Césaire, between the humanist visionary commitment of the poet and the difficult battle of the politician. "A personal film, written and produced with conviction." (TELERAMA)
