Synopsis

Dieudo Hamadi's observational documentary takes us to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, following the work of Mama Colonel. Celebrated for her fierce protection of children and abuse survivors, she has just been assigned a new posting in Kisangani. As she sets out to admonish and inspire her new community to look after each other, she finds that the scars from a horrific 15-year-old war run deep.

No upcoming screenings.
