The Life and Strange Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe Who Lived for Twenty and Eight Years All Alone On an Inhabited Island and Said It Was His (2023) is a unique cinematic experience that transcends a mere retelling of Daniel Defoe’s classic 1719 novel. This film delves into the broader cultural narrative that has evolved from the book's premise, exploring themes of a white man 'civilizing' indigenous inhabitants of an island and asserting ownership over the land. Set against the backdrop of today's urgent call to decolonize the art world and its institutions, Deboosere's film joins a growing body of work aimed at challenging and dismantling imperialist ideologies. The result is a distinctive, subversive film that masterfully blends satire and charm, offering a fresh perspective on the natural world and the human-constructed 'anthropocene' history.
