War Dance

Have just travelled to Northern Uganda - the War Zone. Where children are abducted into the Rebel Army and are refugees in their own country. In 2005, students from the Patongo Primary School, the remotest refugee camp, travelled to Kampala for the National Music competition and took the Championship for their traditional dance, Bwola; An escaped child soldier xylophone virtuoso wins Best Musician award.
The War Dance


I can see ghosts of the ancestors in these children. In his words, "We are Giants"
