Invisible Children is a film documenting the use of child soldiers in Northern Uganda.

Can a story change the world? In the Spring of 2003, three young Americans traveled to Africa in search of such a story. What they found was a tragedy that disgusted and inspired them. A story where children are the weapons and the victims. The Invisible Children: Rough Cut film exposes the effects of a 20-year-long war on the children of Northern Uganda. Children who live in fear of abduction by rebel soldiers, and are being forced to fight as part of a violent army. This wonderfully reckless documentary is fast paced, with an MTV beat, and is truly unique. To see Africa through the young eyes is humorous and heartbreaking, quick and informative - all in the same breath. See this film, you will be forever changed.

In addition to showing the movie, a speaker from the Invisible Children association will speak and answer questions. See a quick overview video by clicking on the 'Video" link in the Image Gallery below.
