The Congo Tribunal

The war in Congo has caused more than six million deaths over the last twenty years. The population is suffering from a state of total impunity. Many people see this conflict as one of globalisation's crucial economic distribution battles because the country has major deposits of many high-tech raw materials. Milo Rau succeeds in gathering victims, perpetrators, observers and analysts of the Congo War for a unique civil tribunal in eastern Congo. He creates an unvarnished portrait of the largest and bloodiest economic wars in human history. (Locarno Festival)
