Film Forum 'Another African Story'
The Film Forum will be on conflict in Africa featuring the documentary film 'Another African Story' by award winning filmmaker Emanuele Piano (2005). Organised in cooperation with COS Limburg.
At Film Forum, a documentary will be followed by an in-depth discussion under the presence of the filmmaker himself. Although the film 'Another African Story' is about Darfur, the discussion will also take into account current conflicts like in Kenya and Thad.
About the film:
“Darfur, a region in Western Sudan, has emerged as the "world's worst humanitarian crisis" according to the UN. A bloody conflict has erupted in the area in February 2003 when two rebel groups took up arms against the Sudanese government, which responded by bombing villages and killing innocent civilians with the aid of an irregular mercenary militia called
Janjaweed. This is the story of people fleeing from a conflict that doesn't spare anyone and taking refuge in Chad. But, it is also the tale of the rebels fighting inside Darfur for their right to development and political representation. Maybe it is a situation like others, one which we could bluntly label as Another African story. But can we get used to genocide?”
