Senator Obama Goes To Africa

Barack Obama returns to his family's roots on an emotional journey to Kismu, Kenya - land of his father - in this new documentary. Part personal odyssey and part chronicle of diplomacy in action, this timely documentary follows Senator Obama as he travels to the land of his ancestry. From South Africa to Kenya to a Darfur refugee camp in Chad, Obama explores the vast continent that is gaining increasing importance in this age of globalization. The heart of the film is Obama's emotional hoemcoming to Kismu, Kenya - his father's former home - where thousands of people turn out to greet him. In South Africa, we follow Senator Obama on a trip to Robben Island - the infamous prison where Nelson Mandela was jailed for 21 years. At a Darfur refugee camp in Chad, we see, through Obama's eyes, the devasting effects of genocide. Throughout it all, Senator Obama narrates the film, giving his own perspective on the journey and the signifigance of Africa to U.S. interests. Additional perspective is included through interviews with experts on African affairs as well as U.S. political commentators.
