Hopes are high in Somalia where the country has had it's first film screening since the civil war in Somalia that broke out in 1991. I am glad to see a revival in Somalias cultural arts sector. The screening means so much to Somals because it brings back a bit of the past with the joy of seeing people like you and your country creating films for you and others. This is a sign that Somalia is improving and will soon be on the world stage.
