Más información sobre el libro
Focusing on the Haitian Revolution, this analysis explores its representation in films and video games, highlighting the first successful revolt by enslaved people in modern history. Despite its significance, the revolution is often overshadowed by narratives that fit the Hollywood mold of suffering and waiting for a savior. Sepinwall provides a comprehensive look at both existing films and unrealized projects, while also addressing the impact of video games, such as the Assassin's Creed series, on public perception and understanding of this pivotal historical event.
