Event
A Question of Humanity
The Acholi tribe of Northern Uganda returns home after 20 years of civil war to discover thousands of their once healthy children developing a bizarre, deadly illness called Nodding Syndrome. Children with this disease appear to be sleepy and 'nod off'. The locals describe afflicted children as 'alive in dead bodies' because they become mentally impaired and their growth is stunted. 'A Question of Humanity' follows a young Ugandan woman who operates a small care center for these kids. She journeys out to some of her country's most isolated villages and discovers these mentally ill children feared to be possessed by demons are tied to trees like animals and neglected by their families. During this journey in search of answers to the cause of this medical mystery, the woman discovers the true strength of the human spirit in the midst of tremendous obstacles.
