The Reckoning
| \\fs-mcl01\MD1\flash\ndd\streams\_definst_\123_8126.flv did not load! |
The International Criminal Court (ICC) represents the most ambitious attempt ever to apply the rule of law on a global scale and to protect the most basic human rights - launched in 2002, it is the first permanent international court set up to prosecute individuals for crimes against humanity, war crimes, and genocide.
Crisscrossing the globe, relentless ICC Prosecutor Luis Moreno Ocampo faces down leaders of the Lord’s Resistance Army in Uganda, puts 4 Congolese warlords on trial, charges Sudanese dictator Omar al-Bashir with genocide in Darfur, (while challenging the UN Security Council to have him arrested), and puts Colombian politicians, guerrillas and paramilitaries on notice for committing war crimes. How is this tiny upstart court in The Hague, created by dreamers in a 50-year movement for international justice, going to end genocide in the Wild West of global conflict zones? Moreno Ocampo has a mandate to prosecute perpetrators around the world for the worst crimes imaginable, whether they are warlords or military brass or heads of state, even as they continue to wreak havoc.
But he has no police force – he has to shame and pressure the international community and to follow through, to galvanize political will. Can he succeed? Moreno Ocampo is forcing world leaders to reckon with justice, angering the superpowers and sparking a David & Goliath battle for the Court’s survival. This is a court for humanity, and it’s fighting for its life against the forces of impunity.

Wireless Users:
To bring as much quality to your streamed video as possible, each film is streamed at the highest practical bitrate, balancing speed with quality.
Generally speaking, wireless connections are a smaller connection (maximum of 54bps), and may sometimes result in "choppy" viewing of the film when bandwidth or connection strength is reduced. If you are on a slower connection of any kind, we recommend that you select a lower bitrate to stream your film.
