Ansumane

I come from Sierra Leone, West Africa, and I have been living in Germany since November 2014. I am one of the team members of the project and this is my second time being part of KINO ASYL. I am taking part in this project because it is a multicultural project through which I have learned a lot about different cultures in different countries. In my two years of experience with KINO ASYL, I have been overjoyed to meet and work with wonderful people from various parts of the world. It is an unforgettable experience. I’m always known among the members as the comedian, because I believe that work becomes much easier and quicker when there’s a bit of fun involved. This year we are presenting the film A Stitch in Time at the KINO ASYL Film Festival. The film was sponsored by the American Embassy in Sierra Leone. It is highly educational for everyone. We chose this film because it shows the world how, whenever an epidemic breaks out somewhere, it is first noticed by only a few people in one country, then by neighboring countries, and finally by people from all over the world. The film is about the Ebola outbreak in Sierra Leone and its neighboring countries. It tells the story of how the epidemic affected the healthcare and education systems as well as the infrastructure of these countries. See you at the cinema!
