3,2/5 (bei 27 Stimmen)

Ein Jugendlicher läuft, bewaffnet mit einer schweren AK-47, durch die Hitze Libanons. Der 15-jährige Johnny ist ein Kindersoldat, der mit seiner Truppe raubend und mordend durch das Land zieht. Die 16-jährige Lakole, die verzweifelt versucht, ihren kranken Vater und ihren kleinen Bruder zu retten, eines eines seiner Opfer. Scheinbar grundlos, durch Machtgier, Hunger und Leid, ist ein Krieg entstanden, den nun Kinder und Jugendliche austragen, und bei dem eigentlich keiner mehr weiß, warum immer wieder das Feuer eröffnet wird und Hunderte von Menschen täglich sterben müssen.

Liberia: An Uncivil War(2004)

1 Std. 42 Min. | Dokumentation
3,5/5 (bei 3 Stimmen)

Liberia, a nation burdened by its past. America, a nation with no memory at all." In Liberia, the summer of 2003 was pure insanity. A rebel army attempts to overthrow a government run by an indicted war criminal. Two armies engage in the final battle of a decade long civil war. Hundreds of innocent civilians die from mortar shells launched from afar and thousands more suffer hunger while the soldiers, mostly teenagers, keep the capital city under siege. The nation prays that America, the world's sole superpower, will put an end to the violence. Conceived in Washington in the early 1800s, its constitution written at Harvard, its founding fathers freed slaves who returned to Africa, Liberia is the one country in the world worthy of the title, Made in America. By the year 2000, Liberia, once considered the gem of Africa, was ranked last in the world for quality of life.

Notes from Liberia(2015)

25 Min. | Dokumentation

This film traces the journey of the late Japanese cinematographer Ryo Murakami to the Firestone Tire and Rubber Plantation in Liberia. Under the cover of night, he trespasses onto the plantation grounds and enters a scarcely seen world, where coercive living conditions and labor practices have changed alarmingly little since the plantation opened in 1926. Journalistic access to the plantation is tightly controlled and monitored by the company, and Ryo’s footage is a rare independent vision of the lives of plantation workers.

Iron Ladies of Liberia(2007)

1 Std. 17 Min. | Dokumentation
3,3/5 (bei 1 Stimme)

When Ellen Johnson Sirleaf became Africa's first ever elected female head of state, filmmakers Siatta Scott-Johnson and Daniel Junge were there to follow her. It was the start of an extraordinary year they spent with the Liberian president as she struggled to take control of a country devastated by years of civil war. Together with her 'iron ladies' (the finance minister and police chief are also formidable females), she takes a firm hold on the government, trying to root out corruption and spend the tiny annual budget carefully. But it is not an easy task, and everything seems to be against her - even her presidential mansion burns down. (Storyville)

Regie: Daniel Junge - Schauspieler: Ellen Johnson Sirleaf
