Fernando Leon de Aranoa highlights the ongoing crises of the ‘night commuters’ and child soldiers in northern Uganda .

Mariano Barroso looks at the dual role of eflornithine, a drug used as a beauty product in wealthy nations, but which is needed to treat Sleeping Sickness in the Central African Republic.

Javier Corcuera travels to Colombia to document the life of people affected by the ever-present violence as they try to return to their rural homes .

Isabel Coixet examines how chagas disease in Bolivia affects a young woman working in Madrid.

The 2.Pm Screening will be followed by a panel discussion.

A second screening will take place at 6.30pm when the audience can watch the film with some food and a glass of wine.

Throughout 2009 DERN will continue to host events on the theme of Global Health and Human Rights . For further information contact:
