Dinner and a Documentary - Shadow World: Inside the Global Arms Trade

RSVP
Join us for prayer, dinner, a movie, and discussion.

This film was released in 2016 but is still relevant for understanding today’s political issues.

The movie deals with violence and includes graphic documentation of war.

From Ronald Reagan to Barack Obama, from Margaret Thatcher to Tony Blair, Shadow World reveals the shocking realities of the global arms trade, the only business that counts its profits in billions and its losses in human lives.

Based on The Shadow World: Inside the Global Arms Trade, the acclaimed book by Andrew Feinstein, the film explores how governments, their militaries and intelligence agencies, defense contractors, arms dealers and agents are inextricably intertwined with the international trade in weapons, and how that trade fosters corruption, determines economic and foreign policies, undermines democracies and creates human suffering.
