This is a pilot episode of In-Between(s) docu series that was started by Anissa Amalia. In-Between(s) is a project exploring the notion of home and self.

In-Between(s)

In the midst of a rebellion in the Republic of Congo, two young women must grapple between their political allegiances and their love for each other.
