,,I come from Sierra Leone and have been in Germany since 2014. This is my second year with team KINO ASYL and it has been interesting to be part of this group with people of diverse cultures and traditions from different parts of the world. I do learn everyday about the way of life of people from other part of the world and I also enjoy sharing my own cultures and traditions with my colleagues.
This year we are showing a film called A Stitch in Time at the KINO ASYL film festivals. This film is sponsored by the United States embassy in Sierra Leone and is very educative to the entire human race. We decided to show this film because it teaches the whole world that whenever something like a disease outbreak happens in any part of the world, it has to be taken seriously first by the people in that country, the neighboring countries and then other people from the other part of the world. This film is about the Ebola outbreak in Sierra Leone and its neighbors, how it defeated these countries´ health’s, educational, and the structural systems of these countries. See you at the Kinos!”
