A quartet of powerful, hard-hitting short films that lay bare the disturbing reality of everyday life in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Ladies in Waiting | Dieudo Hamadi & Divita wa Lusala | DRC | 2006 | 24:14 | English, French with English subtitles
In a run-down maternity hospital, a ward of women who recently had their babies wait to be allowed to leave. The problem? They cannot pay their hospital fees.
Symphony Kinshasa | Kiripi Katembo Siku | DRC | 2006 | 15: 04 | English, French with English subtitles
Take a hard-hitting tour through Congo’s capitol city and discover the consequences of graft, neglect and poverty.
Zero Tolerance | Dieudo Hamadi | DRC | 2006 |16:39 | English, French with English subtitles
Rape as a weapon of war has had much press, most notably in the recent Congo wars. Less discussed is the legacy it has left behind; a desensitized acceptance of the abuse of women at the hands of criminals, opportunists and most worryingly, ordinary men.
After the Mine | Kiripi Katembo Siku | DRC | 2006 | 13:38 | English, French with English subtitles
Kipushi is a mining town, one of thousands keeping Congo’s elite in extreme wealth. But for those who live in the shadow of its toxic fallout, it is a very different life.
