Referring to his 2016 BAFTA Award-winning film as a “creative documentary”, Raoul Peck gives us an insight into his six-year-long editing process, and how he managed to create a structure for the film.
About the film: In 1979, James Baldwin wrote a letter to his literary agent describing his next project, Remember This House. The book was to be a revolutionary, personal account of the lives and successive assassinations of three of his close friends—Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr.
However, at the time of his death in 1987, Baldwin left behind only thirty completed pages of his manuscript. This is the springboard which Peck uses to discuss Baldwin’s lived experiences, entirely in his own words.
