About the Community Actors

All actors in the film are personally affected by Joseph Kony’s LRA and are first-time actors. Open auditions were held in Dungu, DRC and actors were chosen primarily based on performance ability, comprehension and personal commitment to the objectives of the Mobile Cinema film and intervention. First-time actors were chosen who have been personally affected by the conflict – which serves a dual purpose: it engages them in a powerful process of identification and healing themselves and generates a much more real connection to the characters and subject matter.
