CEUX SANS QUI QUE LA TERRE NE SERAIT PAS LA TERRE
2023, David Shongo,  DR Congo, 6 min.
Spoken: French. Subtitles: English
In the town of Kipushi, near Lubumbashi, lies an artificial desert, formed by years of pollution from the first mines. The fascinating pastel colours of the sand are beautiful but toxic to humans and the environment: the result of colonial ecological destruction that led to social and environmental injustices.

With filmmaker David Shongo

PROBLEMS OF ACCESSING CLEAN AND SAFE WATER IN GOMA
2022, Tresor K. Salibok, DRCongo, 24 min.
Spoken: English.
Parts of Goma have no water, caused by a lack of political will and the irresponsibility of the public company Régie de distribution d'eau (Regideso). The absurdity is that Goma is located near Lake Kivu.

Sunday 23rd of April, 17;00 - 17:30 in M Leuven. Tickets!
