    Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

    My name is Bilal and I am 15 years old. Last week I watched the first episode of « Roots » a série realised by « History ». I thought this série would be like other documentary about slavery but I was wrong. This episode gave me a lot of emotions. To begin the way whose it filmed make it very realistic. We have the feeling to be in place of the main character who be catch and torture. In addition there are beatifull soundtracks and they play an essential job in the storyline. On the other hand I find some scene could be too violent for sensitive people. Otherwise I think there are not many places in film I was disappointed. To finish I am impatient to watch next episodes and I recommend you this amazing série if you want to know more about the conditions of the slave trade.

    Hello my name is Ewan Lechat i'm 16 years old and i'm student in high school namde chevrollier I this film is awesome because the scenes is fine for example the scene on the boat where the slaves dance and sing and the rebellions against the master. I also find thas his movie was too short and did not have time to explain the story well. There are scenes taht are too long and that does not serve for the story as the scene where there is the kunta kinte praying before sleeping the scenes where the slaves sing are fabulous because it shows their origin,and is also lively.

    For me, being just 15 years old and I have seen the history of slavery in classes of English and history and I find it is very captivating and also horrific. When I discovered the theme of this series I understood immediately there will be violence when I would watch! This movie spoke about the slavery. How the black men were treat like animals. The theme of the movie was a very excellent idea! I have found the performance of actors are admirable and phenomenal, even if this movie was a little scary and terrifying but it showed the reality of things. I find the soundtracks are the same every time or almost every time. When I finished this movie I felt confused because I am shocked of the fierceness of the white men, they were very stupid! Before I watch this movie I thought I was not the public of this type of movie and contrary to my expected I have liked this movie!
