"This excellent seven-minute video consists of two separate but connected elements: most of the screen is taken up by a single fixed shot of a street corner in an unidentified town, while, at the bottom of the image, text streams from right to left in ticker-tape fashion over a black border. Most of this quotidian street scene involves pedestrians, cars and buses engaged in the delicate choreography of trying to pass one another without the benefit of a traffic light. Meanwhile, the ticker tape issues a parade of headline news about violence elsewhere (Iraq, Israel), a reminder that the world as it exists and the world as it is delivered in newsy sound bites are not one and the same." —Manohla Dargis, The New York Times

A devoted son of Holocaust survivors and ardent critic of Israeli foreign policy, the polarizing American political scientist and author Norman Finkelstein has been called a lunatic and self-hating Jew by some, and an inspirational revolutionary by others. Exploring the deeply complex issues at the heart of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, American Radical is the insightful and enraging documentary that follows Finkelstein around the world as he attempts to negotiate a voice among his impassioned critics and supporters. Uncompromising even in the face of his recent denial of tenure at DePaul University, Finkelstein is revealed as a complex and supremely lonely figure whose self-destructive nature often undermines his academic credibility. A guaranteed argument starter, this potent documentary plunges viewers into the psychological and intellectual underpinnings of a vitriolic personality.

Synopsis J'avais vingt ans quand je me suis perdu en explorant les montagnes de Macchu Picchu. J'ai failli y rester… Les Indiens qui m'ont sauvé la vie ont chanté cette chanson : Sur les rives du fleuve Urubamba, J'ai écrit ton nom sur le sable. La vague est venue, elle a tout effacé. Et de ton nom il ne reste plus rien. Plus rien. Ceux qui m'ont sauvé sont disparus dans le brouillard sans me laisser leur nom. Mais je n'oublierai jamais qu'ils m'ont traité comme si je faisais partie de leur famille. 40 ans plus tard je retourne au point de départ pour initier un nouveau périple. Je pars à la rencontre des amis de longue date?: mi familia americana. Ensemble nous allons prendre le pouls des Amériques.
