War Don Don Now Available on DVD
Still from the film shows defence counsel Wayne Jordash and Prosecutor Steve Rapp doing a radio interview following judgment in the Sesay case.
Rebecca Richman Cohen's award winning film on the work of the Special Court for Sierra Leone, War Don Don, can now be purchased on DVD.
It's a good documentary. It was shown in The Hague last year as part of a film festival, with Jordash, and an OTP person present. Taylor's lawyer was also in the room, and got on his soapbox during question time to denounce the many flaws of the SCSL. I wrote a short review of the movie on my blog at the time, if it's of interest to readers of this blog: http://dovjacobs.blogspot.com/2010/03/war-don-don-raising-questions-about.html
