๐๐ฏ๐ผ๐๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ผ๐ป
๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ผ๐ป (2024) is a compelling biographical drama directed by Jean-Claude Barny, a French director of Guadeloupean and Trinidadian origin, that focuses on Fanon's tenure at the Blida psychiatric hospital in Algeria during the 1950s. In 1953, the Martiniquan psychiatrist became the head of the hospital's psychiatry department, where he treated both French soldiers and Algerian victims of torture and introduced innovative, patient-centered methods of psychiatric care. His progressive approach faced resistance from colleagues and the institution's director. As the Algerian War of Independence intensified, Fanon's commitment to decolonization led him to align with the National Liberation Front (FLN), deepening his involvement in the fight against colonial oppression.
The film's narrative intertwines pivotal moments from Fanon's earlier life in Martinique and France with contemporary scenes in Algeria, and ends with his untimely death from leukemia in 1961 at the age of 36 and his burial in Algeria, at a cemetery dedicated to fallen FLN fighters. His final book, ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐ช๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ฐ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐๐ต, which he dictated from his hospital bed, was published shortly before his death and became a powerful manifesto for anti-colonial struggles around the world. Fanon, who would have become 100 in July 2025, remains a key intellectual figure in the field of postcolonial studies and current decolonization debates.
