Invisible Children Releases Final Video

Apparently 100 million views, a sequel, a highly publicized meltdown and global notoriety weren’t enough for the creators of “Kony 2012.” They’re back at it.

The web hit’s originator, San Diego-based nonprofit Invisible Children, has launched a new documentary called “MOVE.” The video 30-minute online film chronicles the rise and fall of the movement to create awareness about Joseph Kony and his alleged war crimes. The video appears to be affirmation of the organization’s missteps and an attempt to highlight its undeniable success in spreading a message.

Invisible Children describes the film as its “last chapter,” leading to its next step, which is to engage policymakers.

“Ultimately, we cannot arrest Kony,” Jason Russell, nonprofit director, says in the film. “Only the leaders of the world can put pressure on him to surrender or arrest him.”

The video features interviews with child soldiers and victims of Kony’s violence, media clips including Romney and Obama pledging to stop him, and Russell discussing his public breakdown.

“I’m so sorry to the thousands of people who were confused, who were scared and who didn’t trust us anymore because of what happened, and I still live with that every day,” Russell says.

As in its past films, this one ends with a call to action. The organization is hosting a planned rally in Washington, D.C. on November 17. The event will have a Global Dance Night followed by a rally around the White House and a proposed summit between world leaders.
