The glimmer of the cruel world

Although we have known the past and present of Africa in many ways, such as that of the Belgian king who has been using Congo Rwanda as his personal territory and constantly plundering and squeezing the Congo’s population in 40 years has halved (10 million people). Ghosts... But most of the time we don’t really care about the sorrows and joys around us, not to mention the suffering on the other side of the earth... As we wrote after watching "The Rwanda Hotel", the two ethnic groups...

Virunga's inspiration

When we arrive at a place full of war and separatism with warlords, is there a better option for the oil companies to mine and protect the national zoo when the people are not living? If all rebels rely on the illegal export of natural resources in exchange for income, then let a Western company come out to maintain the situation and monopolize the oil income on the one hand. Can it lead to a legal situation? Can it have more financial resources? To maintain our operational capabilities, we...

We will not go (feature film + listen to the director's force)

"We will not go" is the theme song of the movie. It is very nice. It was created by a composer from New York and three prestigious local Congolese artists. The director admitted a little shyly in the Q&A session after the film was broadcast. , It was only after being bought by Netflix that there was money for creation.
(The spoiler is below) The
whole film is interspersed with three clues. One is the natural scenery of the Virunga (this translation is too weird) and the sacrifices...

The earth needs world police, and independence is not as good as a colony.

For regions like Africa and Arabia, independence is not as good as a colony. Although it was also full of oppression and killing, colonization brought culture, technology, faith and hope. Just as the British retired military officer said in the film, many African warlords are serving nakedly to kill, and they may not be human since they were born.


The world needs a world policeman like the United States. Freedom and democracy are based on the survival of the people, on human...

Friends from iraq

My friend's Iraqi roommate told him that he saw the first dead body at the age of 12, bullet through head and violent death. He could be messed up or broken down mentally like thousands of Iraqi people did but he chose to learn to appreciate life. During one semester's exchange, he left Hong Kong for one week, not telling me where to go. He came back as a refugee Canadian with an Iraq inside. Being far away from that war ridden land, his story is still relevant to me. All the courage we need...

What can we do in despair? This record is more about exposing that the ugliest history of human beings is the history of white colonization of Africa. Its poisonous and harmful effects are not only about nature and wild animals. My empathy is not limited to a certain group or one or two countries. The continent needs the burden of all mankind....

The cruel truth, even a somewhat juvenile documentary, cannot hide the light of the content. Those who protect animals with their hearts deserve our respect. What can we use to heal the wounds of the vast land that has been plagued by...

The music is perfect, and at the end the little orangutan touches the prince's shoes in tears. The plot cuts are not satisfactory. I want to integrate everything together, but forget the true meaning of the documentary. It is completely a family's words. Because of professional reasons, they are extra cautious in propaganda. It is easy to scold oil companies and rebels, but it is still difficult to solve the problem, and it is impossible for these people. Only to find out that Congo also speaks...

A shocking account of the Congo war. The fleeting situation is intertwined with the eternal and universal natural emotions, writing about the baseness and the sublime of human...
