Andrew Feinstein, author of the book The Shadow World, will answer these questions and more about the international arms trade on 24 April. A documentary based on his book will also be screened.

Feinstein, from South Africa, has written an expose about the shady side of international arms deals. The documentary, based on the book, had its Dutch premier at last year’s International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam.

PAX is organising the evening in Utrecht. Andrew Feinstein will answer audience questions after the film.
