Congo River, Beyond Darkness

The film takes viewers from the mouth to the source of the second largest river basin in the world--The Congo River (the largest is the Amazon). All along its 4371 km, one discovers places that have seen the turbulent history of this country, while archives recall the mythological figures that created its destiny: explorers such as Livingstone and Stanley, the colonial kings Léopold II and Baudouin I and leaders such as Lumumba, Mobutu and Kabila.
