Congo’s Forgotten Children
Congo’s wars have raged for more than twelve years and the cost to human life has been enormous. Nearly five-and-a-half million people have been killed and many more millions have fled their homes and live in squalor in IDP camps. This film examines how the children of Congo are being affected by the latest fighting to tear their country apart.
