Mobutu, Roi du Zaïre plot

Mobutu, Roi du Zaire is a revealing portrait starring the military dictator of Zaire, Joseph Désiré Mobutu. For more than thirty years, Mobutu has ruled his country as a charismatic and predatory dictator as if it were his own private land. The state treasury or his own bank account was identical to him: the proceeds of diamond and copper mining were distributed among his family or used to finance his entourage and presidential guard. A ruthless hunger for power motivated his actions, opponents were liquidated, history was constantly rewritten: the story of every dictator.
