War/Dance

Friday, July 27, 7:00 pm
U.S.A.—105 minutes
Written and Directed by Sean Fine and
Andrea Nix Fine.


Set in Northern Uganda, a country ravaged by more than two decades of civil war, the feature-length documentary tells the story of Dominic, Rose, and Nancy, three children whose families have been torn apart, their homes destroyed, and who currently reside in a displaced persons camp in Patongo. When they are invited to compete in an annual music and dance festival, their historic journey to their nation’s capital is also an opportunity to regain a part of their childhood and to taste victory for the first time in their lives. This poignant documentary won the Director’s Award at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. Produced by Sean Fine, Andrea Nix Fine, Susan MacLaury and Albie Hecht. A Thinkfilm Release. Director of Photography: Sean Fine.
