Thirty years of war, seven million displaced, ten million killed – this is the brutal reality of the conflict in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, one of the longest and most devastating on the African continent. The film takes us into the heart of the chaos in Goma, the capital of North Kivu province. In January 2025, the city falls to M23 rebels, partially supported by forces from neighboring countries. Within four days, they defeat the Congolese army and allied forces from other nations, as well as mercenaries and militias, despite the presence of the largest UN peacekeeping base – MONUSCO. The film’s director, a native of Goma and witness to these tragic events, uses the camera as a tool of resistance – documenting the daily lives of residents, their survival, creativity, art, and struggles against the realities of war. The film goes beyond a typical war report, showing human determination, vitality, and the resilience of the local community, which, despite trauma, loss, and ongoing conflict, still yearns for a normal life. It is a story of survival in a world where history seems to repeat itself, and people raise their heads in the face of endless war, chaos, and political helplessness.
