It is always fascinating to read about the perspectives that usually get left out of the standard history textbooks. I feel like I learned more from this interview than I did in an entire semester of high school history. It makes you realize how many voices are silenced or just forgotten over time. I will definitely be checking out the book to get the full story instead of the abridged version. Do you think the film industry will ever catch up to this kind of storytelling or is it too complex for a two hour movie?
