German filmmaker Jens Meurer directs this documentary about the Black Panthers, the seminal militant black power movement that was persecuted by J. Edgar Hoover's FBI during the 1960s. Ultimately, the film portrays the revolutionaries in a positive light and the Feds crusade as a tragic waste of life. Panther leader Bobby Seale (who now hawks a line of barbecue cookbooks), law professor Kathleen Cleaver, and musician Nile Rodgers were interviewed for this film. ~ Jonathan Crow, All Movie Guide
