News / Johnny Mad Dog Movie

4 06 2008

On the 5th November 2008 a shoking but realistic movie on the life of a former Child Soldier , will appear in the French cinemas.

“The brutal French-Belgian-Liberian movie Johnny Mad Dog, an assaultive fiction about Liberian child soldiers made with boys and girls who actually fought in that country’s recent war, left me wrung out – furious, confused, deep in thought,” writes Manohla Dargis in the New York Times. “One of a gang of lost children who call themselves ‘the death dealers,’ Mad Dog roams the wastelands of his country, spreading machine-gun terror and death – to men, women and other children – in the name of the revolution. Whose revolution? The movie doesn’t say…. Without context, information or explanation, the movie plunges you into horror – yet, to what end?”
