N: The Madness of Reason (2014)

 N: The Madness of Reason (2014)
Director: Peter Krüger
Country: Netherlands
Runtime :102min

In the mid-20th century, Raymond Borremans left his native France for Africa, where he devoted his life to writing the continent’s first encyclopedia. He had reached the letter N when he died in 1988; his unfulfilled ghost haunts West Africa today. You might have guessed that this is not a straightforward documentary. Combining the realities of present-day Africa with the myths of the past and fictional characters, N skilfully weaves a deep reflection on the legacy of colonialism. Working with high-profile collaborators such as Nigerian writer Ben Okri (script) and French actor Michael Lonsdale (narration), Peter Krüger succeeds in creating one of the year’s most inspired visual worlds. A superb reverie, full of deep, complex meaning.
