In this week's Got Docs segment, we look at a film in progress by Bernadette Atuahene, Sifuna Okwethu, which translates to "We Want What's Ours." The film looks at the difficulties of reclaiming stolen land under the continuing neoliberal control. The filmmakers are looking for support to finish the movie, and you can help them out at their website.
