Sella Oneko, “It’s often difficult to decide which stories to tell if you are not in the place itself. The key is to find a new way of telling the stories and finding interesting people or protagonists who are able to share their personal experiences… The highlight of my reporting trip was filming with the Shege or street kids of Kinshasa. That was just a great stroke of luck, to have found the right people and a great opportunity to be able to accompany them. I could have easily spent much more time with them.”
