Not only have there been many foreigners in Angola and many Angolans traveling back and forth during the war (for example Congolese who fled to Angola, Angolans who lived in DRC and came back, the presence of foreign armies in Angola etc.) also while there was some isolation in rural areas due to mines for example, there were millions of Angolans who were internally displaced. This is not to say the work or the documentary are not of value but it is makes presumptions about what was happening in Angola during the war.

Clearly, the army has the national level organization as well as direct access to men that must be a part of any health campaign against sexually transmitted diseases. I can not agree with Adsads'a dismissal of this presentation and I respect Wide Angle for showing this film. This is an important report on Angola’s serious efforts to combat HIV/AIDS.
