Description
The Democratic Republic of Congo has been home to the deadliest conflicts of the postwar era and hosts the world's largest UN peacekeeping mission. Journalist Michael Deibert travels from war-torn villages in the country's east to the capital of Kinshasa to bring us the voices of the Congolese and explore the complicated political, ethnic and economic geography of this often misunderstood country, iconic for its great potential and dashed hopes.
