Ken Saro-Wiwa Lives On! Trailers

Ken Saro-Wiwa was a well-known Nigerian writer and activist who led a peaceful resistance movement against environmental racism practices by nigerian authorities and multinational oil companies in the Niger Delta, Nigeria. In 1995, along with eight other activists, he was tried by a fraudulent military court and sentenced to death. Through interviews with artists, activists and family members, the documentary presents its history, the impacts caused by the oil exploration in the Delta and the political and cultural relevance of artistic projects in London dedicated to its memory.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
