I had the privilege of being invited back to Uganda to screen this documentary at Cineplex in Kampala on May 28th.

The screening was organised by 2 very hard-working people, Farah Benis (runs the Libra Foundation for Africa) and Pascal Bogaert, who are dedicated to raising awareness about and campaigning against child sacrifice.

The event was spectacularly put together and the response and turnout was overwhelming. Over 150 people attended including Uganda's Chief of Police, The Head of Anti Human Sacrifice Unit, MP's, celebrities, public and press.

Touchingly, the father and family of a victim also attended. Santos Labeja & his wife (featured in the film) made a moving speech about his son Gideon and used the event to flag up his anti child sacrifice NGO The Gideon Foundation, and try and push forward a proposal for new government legislation to try and impose harsher laws on those found guilty of ritualistic murders.
