This documentary has been uncovered from a place deep in the heart of East Africa! It is about the trials and struggles of the Ogaden people in Northern Kenya. Ogaden is a little-known region in south-eastern Ethiopia, bordering Somalia, it is populated mainly by Somali nomads. It’s very sad that for the rest of the world it’s nothing but a dark speck on the map. Nobody hears about Ogaden. People are simply killed, robbed, mistreated and nobody hears anything about it. The lack of reporting tells the Ogadenis that they’re of less value because nobody cares what happens to them. The group of young students who have filmed and interviewed the people of this region had gone to Kenya for a holiday, instead they left with an International campaign against a hidden genocide in the Ogaden.
Though it is impossible to describe in simple language the anguish and tragedy these people have been through, we hope that this documentary will raise awareness about the crimes against humanity being committed. Our aim is on the verge of truly transformative change: changing the way the world responds to genocide and mass atrocities in Ogaden. Only with widespread support will we be positioned to abolish the genocide in Ogaden.
In short, the movement is shifting “Never again” from a promise we make to a commitment we keep.
