Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Raoul Peck talks about his latest film, The Young Karl Marx, a dramatized biopic about Karl Marx’s early adulthood. Alternating fluidly between French, German and English, this film shows how Marx introduced Communist ideals across Europe and how he and Engels began collaborating and drew on workers’ movements in both England and France.
The Young Karl Marx opens on Friday, February 23rd at The Metrograph Theater with a national release to follow. There will be a Q&A at Metrograph after evening screenings on Friday, February 23th and Saturday, February 24th.
This segment is guest hosted by Hari Kondabolou.
