Had the pleasure of seeing Pray the Devil Back to Hell at the Tribeca Film Festival, where it won Best Documentary Feature. Powerful on many levels, this exquisite, hits-you-in-the-heart documentary tells the extraordinary story of a small band of women who unite in the midst of a bloody, beyond brutal civil war. Determined to bring peace to war torn, war lord overrun Liberia, theirs is a tale of courage to the extreme. Also inspiring are director Gini Reticker and producer Abigail E. Disney, two female filmmakers on a mission, who gave a great Q&A after the showing.
The film will be released nationally soon, but get involved prior by asking for it to be shown in your town or by visiting the MySpace page.

I hit a bunch of Tribeca Film Festival screenings, and did my best to get into "Pray the Devil Back to Hell," but missed it. Sounds great ... I'll look for it when it is released.
