War Dance

Last night, Laura and I attended a private screening of War Dance. The documentary follows three children, displaced by the civil war in Uganda, as their school hopes attend the Uganda National Music Competition for the first time ever. There really isn’t much I can say about this movie that would do it any justice at all, but it’s a triumphant and heartbreaking tale to say the least.

Check the tickets and show times to see if its playing near you, and if it is you simply must attend. It will influence your life like in ways you can’t even imagine. Even watching the trailer now brings up an enormous well of emotion.

My favourite was WarDance. I couldn't agree more with you-- movies that have to be paid for aren't typically very good.
