In the spring of 2003, three young Americans traveled to Africa in search of such as story.
What they found was a tragedy that disgusted and inspired them.
A story where children are weapons and children are the victims.

The "Invisible Children: rough cut" film exposes the effects of a 20 year-long war on the children of Northern Uganda.
These children live in fear of abduction by rebel soldiers, and are being forced to fight as a part of violent army.

This wonderfully reckless documentary is fast paced, with an MTV beat, and is something truly unique.
To see Africa through young eyes is humorous and heart breaking, quick and informative - all in the very same breath.

See this film, you will be forever changed.

"Quotes"

There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: The fear of failure ! - "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho

Ere many generations pass, our machinery will be driven by a power obtainable at any point in the universe. This idea is not novel. We find it in the delightful myth of Antheus, who derives power from the earth; we find it among the subtle speculations of one of your splendid mathematicians. Throughout space there is energy. Is this energy static or kinetic? If static our hopes are in vain; if kinetic - and this we know it is, for certain - then it is a mere question of time when men will succeed in attaching their machinery to the very wheelwork of nature." - Nikola Tesla

Keep a open mind - But not so open that your brain falls out

"Fill your bowl to the brim and it will spill. Keep sharpening your knife and it will blunt" - Lao Tzu

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." - Mohandas Gandhi
