Invisible Children Trailers

In the spring of 2003, three young filmmakers traveled to Africa in search of a story. What started out as a filmmaking adventure transformed into much more when these boys from Southern California discovered a tragedy that disgusted and inspired them, a tragedy where children are both the weapons and the victims. After returning to the States, they created the documentary "Invisible Children: Rough Cut," a film that exposes the tragic realities of northern Uganda.s night commuters and child soldiers. The film was originally shown to friends and family, but has now been seen by millions of people. The overwhelming response has been, "How can I help?" To answer this question, the non-profit Invisible Children, Inc. was created, giving compassionate individuals an effective way to respond to the situation.

This film changed my entire outlook on life. Seeing how the children of Uganda handle their terrible conditions in their everyday lifestyles has caused me to realize the things I considered "unbearable" do not even come CLOSE to what they are forced to go through. Watching the Invisible Children film caused me to realize what I want to do with my life. I want to go to Africa and HELP in any way possible. I want to make a difference. This video MUST be seen by everyone and anyone. I just bought a copy and have mailed it to my parents with a note inside asking them to mail it to a friend after they view it and then have THEM mail it to one of THEIR friends...I want it to work out so that the film is seen at least once a week and then passed on. SPREAD THE WORD. This is too much to be contained.

This movie, undoubtedly, WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. It is imperative that everyone sees this. It is heart warming and wrenching simultaneously. Nothing compares to the documentation of real life. The faces of the children and the cold truth of what is really going on in the world evokes a sense of wanting to change the world in any way possible. The scene that talks some about the politics behind the war is the most moving scene I have ever witnessed in a movie. Regardless of how many times I have seen this movie (which is well over 20) I am awaken every single time. If this doesn't inspire you to help out in the world, God only knows what will.
