An unfiltered look in to the lives of 3 characters surviving amongst the most recent cycle of conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo, otherwise known as the M23 rebellion.

Plot

THIS IS CONGO (working title) is an unblinking and unfiltered look into one of the world's longest standing, ongoing wars and those who are surviving within it. With over three years of heart-stopping footage, this feature length documentary challenges the Western idea of the Congo, never shying away from the violence and atrocities that cycle through this breathtaking landscape. With the powerful voices of three fearless characters - a mineral smuggler, a national army commander, and an internally displaced survivor of war, we begin to see the paradox of the Congo; beauty and brutality illuminated under darkness.
