Theatre of Violence (2023)

A powerful documentary about the ICC trial of Dominic Ongwen, a victim of Joseph Kony's army of child soldiers, and a perpetrator of over 61 counts of war crimes. Through cinematic reconstructions, victim testimonies and courtroom footage, the film offers a comprehensive portrait of Uganda's past and present. Centered around the themes of colonialism and the moral questions that arise when a person is both a victim and a perpetrator, this thought-provoking film explores the challenges of achieving justice in an international court that lacks the cultural and historical context of the subject matter.
