In Goma, eastern DR Congo, two young dancers are using their art to push back against the weight of their surroundings.

For them, dance is more than just movement – it is an outlet, a form of resistance, and a chance to claim joy in a place where conflict and instability have shaped daily life for more that 30 years.

Their story is one of resilience, community, and hope.
