Machete boys of Congo

There is no law or moral code for the youngsters of impoverished neighbourhoods in the port city of Matadi. In their teenage years, they’ve already earned a reputation as ruthless outlaws who prowl the streets, steal from locals, extort money from businesses and fight each other. They are called, Kulunas – members of youth gangs infesting Congolese cities. RTD takes a risky trip to follow some of the young criminals to expose their world of violence and drugs.
