THE EMPTY GRAVE (KABURI WAZI) Berlinale 2024 Review: A Stark Documentary Journey on the Legacy of Colonial Plunder in Tanzania

“The Empty Grave” is a documentary that speaks to the soul. It demands of its viewers an emotional and intellectual engagement with the material realities of colonial plunder. The film’s conclusion is a resounding refusal to offer closure, both to the families it portrays and to the viewers who bear witness to their plight. The film’s epilogue is not just an update; it is a sobering reminder that the struggle for reparative justice is far from over, and a clarion call that underscores the vast scale of the problem.
