(1990) In the Central African Republic, journalist Michael Goldsmith (a former prisoner and torturee) questions a wife and some of the 50 odd children of ex-"emperor" (self-proclaimed) Jean-Bédel Bokassa and tours his former HQ, with archive footage of the blood-soaked 13-year reign intercut. (Herzog himself was briefly Bokassa's prisoner.)
