From the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR):
“Actor-director Ben Affleck and Sir Mick Jagger have launched a short film for UNHCR’s new Gimme Shelter campaign to help raise funds and awareness about the crisis in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and the work of the UN refugee agency.”
It’s short, well edited, features good music and gets the message across - well done Ben!
Take a look and then takepart with the UNHCR.
