Synopsis

For two decades, victims of the Six-Day War in the Democratic Republic of Congo have been fighting in Kisangani for recognition of this bloody conflict that left several scars on their bodies, demanding compensation. Tired of fruitless appeals, they finally decided to express their demands in Kinshasa after a long journey down the Congo River.
