Stealing Africa

About This Movie

Stealing Africa dives deep into the paradox of Zambia's wealth in copper. It's a slow-burn documentary that captures the stark contrast between the luxurious extraction operations and the grim reality faced by the local population. The pacing is methodical, allowing viewers to absorb the complex economic and social themes at play. There’s a rawness to the cinematography, making it feel real, almost immersive. You get a sense of the frustration and hopelessness, as the film highlights how multinational corporations profit immensely while the country languishes in poverty. It’s not just about copper; it’s about exploitation, greed, and the struggle for justice. The tone is somber, but it provokes thought and conversation long after it ends.
