DESCRIPTION:Invisible Children is a media-based non-profit organisation ad
 vocating for the rights of war-affected children in Northern Uganda. \nThe
  charity began in 2003 when three student film-makers from San Diego went 
 to Uganda in search of a story to document. They found an unseen war and t
 he children fighting it\, 'unseen' because it has been given so little pol
 itical and international attention\; a war that most people don't even kno
 w exists. Not only are children being abducted from their families to join
  the rebel army the fighting has displaced over a million people in Northe
 rn Uganda and Democratic Republic of Congo and massacred thousands.\n\nTHE
  RESCUE is a film on the growing crisis of child soldiering in the civil w
 ar between the LRA (Lords Resistance Army) and the Ugandan Government. The
  war has been going on for over 23 years\, which makes it the longest runn
 ing war in Africa. A shocking 90% of the rebel LRA are children\, some are
  as young as 5 years old.\n
