War Dance is a powerful documentary that follows a group of schoolchildren as they overcome nearly insurmountable odds in their quest to participate in the annual Kampala Music Festival. For over 20 years, Northern Uganda has been a war zone, as a vicious rebel force, the Lords Resistance Army, has run rampant, destroying villages, kidnapping children, and murdering parents. The survivors are forced to live in refugee camps, where conditions are bleak and resources are scarce.
