Tigray, in northern Ethiopia, was at the epicenter of the 80’s famine that killed one million people and inspired Live Aid. Now, 40 years later, history is in danger of repeating itself. Powerful interviews tell of a war between 2020 and 2022 that killed 600,000 soldiers and citizens. As one of the worst and least reported conflicts of our time, few in the West are aware of the levels of killing and sexual violence that have left Tigray in trauma. This time, there will be no pop concert. The film features a stark interview with Bob Geldof, the rock star behind Live Aid, and asks: In a world of plenty why are babies still starving to death? In a time of mass media, why does no one seem to care? While the world focusses elsewhere, the people on the ground battle to pick up the pieces; teachers, farmers, business owners and humanitarians, people just like us, who find themselves on the frontlines of hunger.
