Pray the Devil Back to Hell

PRAY THE DEVIL BACK TO HELL
History has many unacknowledged heroes and this documentary examines a group of women who fought for peace in Liberia, campaigning to end the country's devastating civil war. Crossing religious and generation lines, the group of women first prayed for their country, and then they began a silent protest outside the walls of the president's palace. Awe-inspiring... Tremendously moving... Lucidly impassioned. This political documentary about protests during the Liberian Civil War is an uplifting celebration of the capacity of everyday people to affect great change.
