The Uncanny

"The Uncanny" is a documentary project conducted in Congo DR since the political elections of Fall 2011. It was carried out by accompanying family members, political personalities, religious leaders and local TV teams throughout the country. The project aims to document daily life in Congo, and understand the complexity of Congolese society (concurrently recovering part of my own identity). This story brings a vision of the country experienced from within. It tries to show the collateral impact of the war instead of the direct hits.
