DR Congo: Inside rebel-seized Goma

Description

The M23 rebels in the DR Congo say they won't stop until they've taken the capital. We go to the first town seized by them this week, the strategic city of Goma. Next, the international community has yet to make any firm commitment to military intervention in Mali. In the meantime, a group of young fighters are training to take back the north from Islamists. Finally, a Kenyan movie called "Nairobi Half Life" is hoping to go all the way to the Oscars.
