This is a shocking and moving documentary everybody should see.
I did yesterday, as it was screened in a Berlin museum that's doing a Darfur week.

The conflict in Darfur is going on since 2003 and noone is doing anything to stop it. 450.000 people are dead already, slaughtered in a genocide to ethnically cleanse that region which is part of Sudan in northeast Africa. The world is watching while a 2nd Rwanda is happening. It's happening right now!

There are a lot of NGOs, political pressure groups and help organisations who try to help the people of Darfur, e.g.:

http://www.savedarfur.org/content
http://hrw.org/doc?t=africa&c=darfur

If you can, please do something to help, le.g. donate to help organisations, write your congressman/government, take part in demonstrations etc.
