Congo-Océan, un chemin de fer et de sang dives into the haunting history of the Congo-Océan railway, and man, it's a heavy watch. The documentary doesn’t shy away from the bloodshed and suffering tied to its construction. There's a somber tone throughout, almost like a dirge, that really sinks in. The pacing feels deliberate, almost like it's demanding you to reflect on the past. While there's no flashy effects, the archival footage paired with contemporary interviews gives it a raw authenticity. It's haunting, sometimes chilling, and definitely makes you ponder the cost of progress. If you’re into documentaries that tackle difficult subjects head-on, this one might linger with you.
