Mozambique
Description
This film looks at Father Jose Padin, a Maryknoll missioner from Puerto Rico, as he serves a village in the Nissia Province of Mozambique. A trained counselor, he talks to civil war survivors about their experiences in an effort to heal psychological wounds and build trust and lasting peace among the Metangula community. Local development initiatives include building small scale corn mills and providing medicine to counteract a high child mortality rate in a nation crippled by internal conflict.
