Synopsis
Edmondson Sonny Cole, Edison Yongai and Abdul Rahaman Jalloh are journalists-in-exile from Sierra Leone who now reside in Australia. DARKNESS OVER PARADISE is their story. Their testimonials, and that of Ms Saibatu Kamara, humanitarian worker, provide a vivid narrative of the lives of ordinary people and media workers caught up in a brutal civil war. Photojournalist Cole's original footage bears witness to the daily horrors of war and provides a rare insight into the refugee experience.
