Directed by Ethiopian filmmaker Haile Gerima, Teza is set in the late 1970s Ethiopia just after HIM Haile Selassie I is dethroned by Haile Mariam Mengistu and his military troops.
From the blurb: "Set in Ethiopia and Germany, Teza examines the displacement of African intellectuals, both at home and abroad, through the story of a young, idealistic Ethiopian doctor -- Anberber. The film chronicles Anberber's internal struggle to stay true, both to himself and to his homeland, but above all, Teza explores the possession of memory -- a right humanity mandates that each of us have - the right to own our pasts."
