“A Journey to Darfur” to air on US network
January 14th, 2007 by Zsofia
The much-hyped George Clooney documentary “A Journey to Darfur” will be given its debut on a US network tomorrow night. In the film, Clooney and his television journalist father travel through affected areas in Sudan and Chad, filming in refugee camps and interviewing victims of the Janjaweed militia.
After shooting wrapped up, Clooney hit the television talk-show circuit and event went to the UN Security Council to campaign for a UN intervention in Darfur. (So far, without success.) “When you see entire villages raped and killed, wells poisoned and then filled with the bodies of its villagers, then all complexities disappear, and it comes down to simply right and wrong,” he said.
