The Haitian Revolution, which took place from 1791 to 1804, was a successful slave revolt that led to the establishment of the independent nation of Haiti. This article explores the representation of the Haitian Revolution in film and video games, and how these media have contributed to our understanding of this important historical event.
The Haitian Revolution has been the subject of a number of films, including:
- Toussaint Louverture (1997): This film tells the story of Toussaint Louverture, a former slave who became the leader of the Haitian Revolution.
- The Taking of Pelham 123 (2009): This film features a subplot involving a group of Haitian immigrants who are planning to kidnap the mayor of New York City.
- Zombi Child (2019): This film tells the story of a young Haitian woman who is brought to France as a slave and becomes a zombie.
These films offer a variety of perspectives on the Haitian Revolution, from the point of view of the slaves who fought for their freedom, to the point of view of the white slave owners who fought to keep their slaves in bondage.
