Ein Somalia in diesen Grenzen gibt es allerdings aufgrund des Somalischen Bürgerkrieges seit 1988 nicht mehr. Bis 1991 spaltete sich der Nordwesten ab und existiert seither als unabhängiger De-facto-Staat Somaliland weitgehend stabil, im Gegensatz zum Rest des Landes, in dem es bis heute Kämpfe gibt und das als gescheiterter Staat zählt. Der Landesname ist vom Volk der Somali abgeleitet, das die Bevölkerungsmehrheit bildet. Somalia entstand aus dem Zusammenschluss der Kolonialgebiete Britisch- und Italienisch-Somaliland, die 1960 ("Afrikanisches Jahr") gemeinsam unabhängig wurden. Mit dem Sturz der autoritären Regierung unter Siad Barre 1991 zerfiel Somalia vollends. Die ab dem Jahr 2000 unter dem Schutz der internationalen Staatengemeinschaft gebildeten Übergangsregierungen blieben weitgehend erfolglos; sie vermochten zeitweise kaum die Haup... ()

Warriors from the North(2015)

59 Min. | Dokumentation, Krieg
2,8/5 (bei 2 Stimmen)

The issue of young Muslims traveling from Europe to countries such as Syria and Somalia to fight with Islamic rebels is a highly topical one, making this story of a Danish-Somalian boy even more relevant. His back turned to the camera as he looks out over a nondescript housing development in Copenhagen, “The Shadow” describes how he fell victim to recruiters from the militant Somalian rebel group al-Shabaab. He outlines the conditions that make boys such as him susceptible to the lure of the “holy war,” explaining that, “Nothing in my life made any sense.” So eloquent is he in his account that one might think it was scripted, but what happened to him is as real as the scenes from a suicide attack by one of his former friends.

From Gulf to Gulf to Gulf(2013)

1 Std. 23 Min. | Dokumentation
2,9/5 (bei 2 Stimmen)

A boat has many powers: to gather a society in its making, to distribute goods, to carry people and ideas across places that, it seems to us, are more different than ever before. From Gulf to Gulf to Gulf is a result of four years of dialogue, friendship and exchange between CAMP and a group of sailors from the Gulf of Kutch. Their travels and those of co-seafarers from Sindh, Baluchistan, and Southern Iran through the gulfs of Persia and Aden show us a world cut into many pieces, not easily bridged by nostalgics or nationalists. Instead, we follow the physical crossings made by these groups of people who make and sail wooden boats and who also make videos, sometimes with songs married to them.

1 Std. 30 Min. | Dokumentation
3,8/5 (bei 5 Stimmen)
