WAR DANCE (4 STARS)

Wow, what a heart wrenching documentary. It's about northern Ugandan kids who are in the dance/music/choir. They're practicing for the Ugandan choral competition.

These kids have had it as rough as you can possibly imagine. Some have seen their parents killed before their eyes. Some have been made to do the killing. Northern Uganda is a war zone, constantly in thread of rebel solders invading. They live in a refugee camp of 60,000. It's a city of huts. They live very poor, relying solely on the U.N. to supply them with food once a month.

It's SO SAD to hear the stuff they've gone threw and to see the state they are living in. All they have is this competition. It brakes your heart, over and over and over. You cry when they're sad, and you cry even more then they're happy.

I guess, go ahead and watch it.... just let the tears flow and flow and flow.

If you don't cry when watching this, i need to speak to your mother.
