How to Stop it.
Film and discussion
Film screening, introduced by the director, and discussion about sexual violence in war and how to stop it. Guests from the DR Congo, Rwanda, Australia, USA as well as experts from Norway and the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Is the conflict in the DR Congo just a chaotic and incomprehensible inferno of murder and rape, towards which nothing can be done? Or is it possible to analyze the war and find and implement concrete actions to prevent sexual violence and torture on the scale we see in the DR Congo today?
