Exterminate All the Brutes: Showing this four-part HBO series in
recognition of Black History Month
Exterminate All the Brutes is an eye-opening journey
through time, offering an incisive look at the history of European colonialism
in Africa and the Americas. The groundbreaking series explores the lasting
impact of exploitation and genocide on society today, pushing the boundaries of
traditional documentary filmmaking by weaving director Raoul Peck’s (I Am Not
Your Negro) personal voyage into the darkest hours of humanity with scripted
scenes starring Josh Hartnett (Pearl Harbor). Across four episodes, Peck
deconstructs the making and masking of history, digs deep into the ideology of
white supremacy, and challenges audiences to rethink the very notion of how
history is written.
