Peace vs Justice
Filmmaker, Klaartje Quirins

Klaartje Quirijns is a Dutch film and television director and producer. In The Netherlands she worked as a documentary director and producer for the public stations VPRO, IKON and NPS.

Peace vs. Justice (2011) is a documentary about the Lord's Resistance Army, a rebel group and heterodox Christian cult which operates in northern Uganda, South Sudan, the Central African Republic and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Its stated goals include establishment of multi-party democracy, ruling Uganda according to the Ten Commandments.
The group appears to largely function as a personality cult of its leader Joseph Kony, and has been accused of widespread human rights violations, including murder, abduction, mutilation, child-sex slavery, and forcing children to participate in hostilities.

In the documentary, Quirijns visualises the tensions between the International Criminal Court in The Hague, Netherlands and the Lord's Resistance Army.
