Award winning documentary ‘The Shadow World’ reveals how the international trade in weapons fosters corruption, determines economic and foreign policies, undermines democracy and creates widespread suffering.  The film unravels a number of the world’s largest and most corrupt arms deals through those involved in perpetrating and investigating them.  In shedding light on how our realities are being constructed, the film offers a way for audiences to see through this horror, in the hopes of creating a better future.
After the screening there will be a discussion with Andrew Feinstein (author of The Shadow World) & Sayed Ahmed Alwadaei (Bahrani human rights activist now living as a refugee in London).
This event is put together in partnership with Wimbledon Amnesty, London Campaign Against Arms Trade & Wimbledon Quakers.
