Antebellum

Rarely have I watched a movie which caused me to get goosebumps so many times. I have watched a lot of movies dating back to the beginning of cinematography and around the world. And I am lucky if I have the feeling of being in awe by a movie once every year. And this movie is definitely one of them!

It is shocking how incredibly precise it captures the Zeitgeist of America. It is a contemplation on contemporary racism in America. And it is depicted in a way, which gives one a kind of new perspective on racism and showed how infinitely primitive and stupid it is.

But of course it's rating is below 6 (IMDB) because it is about black people. I find this disgusting! The protagonist plays exceptionally good and deserves an Oscar in my opinion. The story is very well write and is very thrilling. And I find it a rare movie in which people of color have and keep their dignity, respectively are shown in a dignified way!
