Itto

A jingoistic tale about clashes between French colonial forces and a rebellious Moroccan chieftain in Morocco filmed in French and uses Chleuh tribal language for dialogue is sure to be problematic and difficult to swallow for modern viewers. Itto presents a skewed perspective in which the betrayal of one's own people is acceptable to preserve French colonialism in Africa. This opinionated film is hardly an impartial portrayal of history, and its rampant chauvinism is a huge hurdle for many viewers.
