Invisible Children

Invisible Children: The Rough Cut is a film about the plight of child soldiers and night commuters in northern Uganda. The documentary was filmed in 2003 when three young men from Southern California – Jason Russell, Bobby Bailey and Laren Poole (then 24, 21 and 20) – traveled to Sudan “to find a story.”

Instead, their adventure took them into the depths of northern Uganda where they discovered thousands of people affected by the brutality and attacks of a rebel group known as the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA). The documentary chronicles their experience as young Americans learning firsthand about a conflict largely unknown to the international community, while also informing audiences about the great humanitarian crisis of child soldiers.

Representatives from Invisible Children Inc. will be present to discuss the film
and the impact it is having in Uganda.
