Inside the story of Black Jesus
Black Jesus centers on a premise that unfolds like this: A thinly-disguised biography of African leader Patrice Lumumba, here called Lalubi. Lalubi, a Christ-like leader determined to save his people, by passive resistance, from the dictatorial regime propped up by European colonialists, is imprisoned and tortured, along with a thief who comes to a greater understanding through his contact with Lalubi.
The pacing rewards patient viewers, layering small details that pay off later. The tagline — "He who ain't with me--is AGAINST me." — captures that tone perfectly. For a frame-by-frame breakdown, the dedicated Wikipedia entry and IMDb trivia pages are excellent companions.
