From Colonialism to Democracy: Congolese Voices Across Time
This three-film collection offers a powerful introduction to the history, resilience, and democratic aspirations of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Through the legacy of Belgian colonialism, the humanitarian work of Dr. Denis Mukwege, and the courage of young pro-democracy activists, these films trace Congo's journey from colonial oppression and historical injustice to contemporary struggles for human rights, justice, and self-determination. Ideal for courses in African Studies, History, Political Science, Human Rights, and Postcolonial Studies.
The collection includes:
• Boma-Tervuren, The Journey
• The Man Who Mends Women
• Kinshasa Makambo
Purchase gives streaming access (PPR) to all three films.
