The genocide of the Six-Day War in Kisangani in Congo during 2000, left thousands dead and many mutilated - living without arms or legs. The Rwandans and Ugandans waged war on the Congolese territory, and now the 12 members who are delegates demanding compensation from the Congolese government take a perilous boat trip to Kinshasa to demand the money; they have rights.
We follow
this group of amazing people who walk into town during the elections in front
of the government building, only to be turned away with threats.
When the new opposition
party gets in. We meet these resilient warriors for justice, and they are
actually putting on a play that chronicles their plight. In the end, President
Lemalema of the country attends. A compelling documentary filmed with the
director’s camera in hand that shows all the terrors of their journey including
rain storms and more. A powerful film!
