DANGEROUS ART
(6 minutes 50 seconds) Canada/Mozambique
Director/Producer: Sean Kelly
UNAFF screening schedule


DESCRIPTION/

Dangerous Art is a story of a deadly civil war, which ended in the African nation of Mozambique in 1992. Thousands of guns, grenades and landmines remain a continuing threat to the hard-won peace. As a result, a group of artists came up with a better use for the weapons - they are turning them into sculptures.
