Francesca Roveda Films, LLC documented the amazing and compelling work by hundreds of communities as part of the yearlong international Tents of Hope Campaign, which culminated in November 2008 on the mall in Washington D.C. and then headed to Darfur refugee camps.

We created a short film, which you can purchase here, as a way to raise awareness and inspire more people to get involved in stopping genocide permanently.

The short film shows the children of Tents of Hope opening their hearts and minds to the people of Darfur. We see them paint one side of canvas panels, which are then flown over to children living in Darfur refugee camps who paint the other side, creating a bridge between the two cultures. The story also shows Katie-Jay Scott and Gabriel Stauring of Stop Genocide Now as they are caught in the crossfire of rebel and Chadian troops while waiting to return home from their humanitarian work.
