Summary
"Episode III, also known as 'Enjoy Poverty' after the neon sign sculpture that plays a pivotal role in the film, is a record of Renzo Martens' activities in the Congo. In an epic journey through the country's institutions, swamps and battlefields, the Dutch artist tries to set in motion an emancipation program, bound to fail from start, that will make local people understand that poverty is their greatest asset."--Unedited summary from container.
