Since 1985 Bob Geldof has received a knighthood for his humanitarian work and has regularly contributed to development and charity debates alongside the likes of Nelson Mandela and Kofi Annan. These six original 30-minute programs, shot entirely in Africa, are documentary essays that unravel the complexities of Africa -- cultural, historic, political, and climatic. Taken together, they're a personal journey to understand ordinary Africans and, through their experiences, to understand the forces that make the continent what it is. Bonus features include interviews with Geldof and behind-the-scenes footage. DVD available from www.rhino.com.
