Children of Congo: From War to Witches dives deep into the stark reality of life in Kinshasa for children orphaned by war. The documentary, while lacking a well-known director, brings a raw, unfiltered look at the consequences of decades of conflict. It’s heavy, heavy stuff, showing these kids navigating a harsh world where survival often means exploitation. The pacing feels deliberate, letting you sit with the discomfort of their experiences. The atmosphere is thick with despair, yet there’s a sliver of resilience that peeks through. The practicalities of everyday life in the streets are captured with an almost haunting sincerity. It's a tough watch but a compelling exploration of endurance and the shadows of war.
