The Current Crisis in DR Congo: A screening in collaboration with Africa Engage

Elisé Sawasawa is living through a never-ending tale of war, despair and resistance in North Kivu in Democratic Republic of the Congo. But every day in the streets and camps, the people fight, refusing to give up, armed with their weapons – sometimes made of wood – poetry, dance, and music. Meet journalist and publisher of ‘Afrika brevet’ for Danwatch, Oscar Rothstein, in a conversation about the current crises in DR Congo and how the making of art, can become a powerful form of resistance. 

 

This conversation is presented in collaboration with Africa Engage, an initiative which enhances professional cooperation with the African continent & better insight into the continent through film, by curation and hosting events at CPH:DOX. This is made possible thanks to Open, Bullitt Film, Steps and Film Lab Zanzibar.
