The Ambassador

Mads Brügger Denemarken 2011 93 min.

Thrilling, funny, provocative and controversial: journalist and documentary filmmaker Mads Brügger finds an unconventional way to paint the corruption and the moral bankruptcy of the Central-African region. Dressed as a neo-colonial, white suit included, Brüger heads to the Central African Republic where he poses as a Liberian ambassador, thanks to a bought diplomatic passport. Officially he is there on business, but his real aim is to explore the shady world of blood diamond trade.
