Amazing. Complicated lives and motivations. People doing terrible things because terrible things have been done to them. And people doing terrible things because they think it will save someone else (and maybe themselves). Others do terrible things because their money and the centuries of colonial privilege and theft mean they think they can do what they like. 
Shines a light on the destruction wrought on people and communities by capitalism, colonialism, violence to women, racism and colourism.
