Amnesty International Aalborg invites all to watch a new documentary “Blood in the Mobile” by Frank Poulsen (se the trailer here). The film tells a story of the filmmaker’s journey to discover the truth about his mobile phone. It shows many shocking examples of child labour and war economy in Congo, where the metal used in mobile phones is mined.
The African continent is known for its rich mineral resources. In Congo you can find, among others, a mineral used in production of our mobile phones. The country is plagued by civil war, which during the last 15 yeas has claimed over 5 million human lives.
The film starts at 15:00 and lasts about 120 minuter. Afterwards we would like to engage you in a short discussion about the situation in Congo and talk more about thedark side of our consumer society.
Entry is of course free of charge.
We hope to see you next Wednesday!

Amnesty International Aalborg inviterer alle til en ny dokumentarfilm “Blod i mobilen” (se trailer her). Filmen handler om en filmskabers rejse for at finde sandheden om sin mobiltelefon. Den viser flere rystende eksempler pÃ¥ børnearbejde og krigsøkonomi i DR Congo hvor metal til mobiltelefonerne bliver udvundet.
Det afrikanske kontinent er kendt for sin rigdom på mineraler. I Congo findes bl.a. et mineral, som bruges i produktionen af vores mobiltelefoner. Landet plages af en borgerkrig, som allerede har kostet mere end 5 millioner mennesker livet.
Filmen starter kl. 15:00 og bagefter, ca kl 16:30 skal vi have en diskussion omkring situationen i Congo og snakke lidt om en skyggeside af vores forbrugersamfund.
Adgang er selvfølgelig gratis.
Vi håber at se jer næste onsdag!
Der er åbent måde i lokalforeningsledelsen onsdag d. 11. maj kl. 19.30 i Danmarksgade 7. Alle er velkomne!
