Overview

Red Africa relates the history of the influence exerted by the USSR over many African states between 1960 and 1990, working from extraordinary archival footage filmed by Soviet operators. The subtle editing of restored images reveals the hidden agenda of the USSR which, under the cloak of generosity, was aspiring to expand its socialist “paradise”.
