Sorious Samura's "Cry
Freetown" has become a phenomenon. A brutal
portrayal of what happened in Freetown, capital of
Sierra Leone in January 1999, the film has succeeded
in making the horror of this country's civil war a
matter of international outrage. Sorious Samura shot
the film at great risk for his own life, keenly
aware of the fact that the strong images he recorded
were the only thing that could shake the world from
its indifference to the plight of his countrymen,
women and children. If you want to make a difference
in Sierra Leone, this web site provides you with all
you need to start. It gives you an overview of the
history and current situation in Sierra Leone and,
should you wish to take action, it helps you to
focus your efforts towards the areas that will make
the greatest impact. |
