Africa Rising
Rate itMember ratings
This documentary revisits decades of aid to Africa and asks why extreme poverty persists despite campaigns like Live Aid. Shot across the continent, it goes inside the economies, politics and everyday lives shaping Africa's future. Rather than despair, it looks for the forces that might drive genuine growth and self-reliance. Balanced and thought-provoking, it challenges familiar assumptions about a continent too often defined by its struggles. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
