A Stitch in Time tells the story of six young people from Sierra Leone who are infected with the deadly Ebola virus. Three of them do not believe that Ebola exists. The other three do believe it but are confused due to misinformation, pressure from their surroundings, and cultural practices. Interwoven is the story of a doctor who has treated the young daughter of a friend for Ebola. Who among the affected will survive? What have they done to fight Ebola?

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!

I come from Sierra Leone and have been in Germany since 2014. This is my second time being part of KINO ASYL. It has been exciting to be part of this group with people from different cultural and traditional backgrounds from various parts of the world. Every day, I have learned something about the lives of people all over the world, and I have enjoyed sharing my culture and traditions with my colleagues. Dieses Jahr zeigen wir den Film A Stitch in Time beim KINO ASYL Filmfestival. Der Film wurde von der amerikanischen Botschaft in Sierra Leone gesponsert. Er ist für alle Menschen sehr lehrreich. Wir haben uns dafür entschieden diesen Film zu zeigen, weil er der ganzen Welt vor Augen führt, dass wann auch immer eine Seuche irendwo in der Welt ausbricht, diese Gefahr erst von wenigen Menschen in einem Land wahrgenommen wird. Dann von den benachbarten Ländern. Dann von anderen Menschen aus anderen Ländern der Welt. Dieser Film handelt vom Ausbruch von Ebola in Sierra Leone und seinen Nachbarländern. Er handelt davon, wie er das Gesundheits- und Bildungssystem sowie die Infrastruktur dieser Länder beeinträchtigt hat. Wir sehen uns im Kino!
