Shock Waves @ Vues d'Afrique

Shock Waves (Ondes de choc), by  Pierre Mignault and Hélène Magny, will be presented at  Vues d'Afrique this Saturday, April 30, at 6 PM, at the Gesù for the Soirée Grands documentaires Radio-Canada.

Shock Waves
In the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country whose record of human rights violations is among the worst in the world, the journalists at Radio Okapi risk their lives every day to expose the abuses of power to which the civilian population is subjected. Shooting in danger zones still under the hold of rebellion, the filmmakers follow the work of several reporters from this independent, UN-backed national radio station. In a land where silence is imposed at gunpoint, Shock Waves provides moving testimony to the struggle for freedom of expression and democracy in a country torn apart by the aftermath of war.
