Congo Week (19.-25.10.25):

Filmscreening of the „Free Congo Collective“

🔋Cobalt is the metal of our time – the basis for batteries, electric cars and the so-called ‘green’ future. But what does this change mean for the people who live where cobalt is mined?

⚒️In Kolwezi, in the heart of the Congolese cobalt belt, we encounter another side of the global energy transition. ‘MIKUBA’ accompanies Mama Leance as she navigates a system that dictates her life from the outside. Between mining, spirituality and community, the film opens up a perspective that is often ignored and urgently asks what justice really means in times of a ‘green’ future.

📽️A film about memory, resistance and responsibility that concerns us all.
