Description

The superb documentary War Dance reveals the redemptive power of music, even in the most horrific places. Set in war-raved Northern Uganda, the award-winning documentary (and 2007 Academy Award Nominee for Best Documentary Feature) will touch your heart with a real-life story about a group of children whose love of music brings joy, excitement and hope back into their poverty-stricken lives. Three children who have suffered horrific brutalities momentarily forget their struggles as they participate in music, song and dance at their school. Invited to compete in a prestigious music festival in their nation’s capitol, their historic journey is a stirring tale about the power of the human spirit to triumph against tremendous odds.
