...dangerous than Baghdad, "I followed that lead like you would as a journalist," says Gittoes. And what that led to is Rampage, the documentary that has its Australian premiere at the Sydney Film Festival next week. In 103 fast-and-furious minutes, we meet Lovett's neighborhood of Brown Sub. It's Miami Vice without the pastel suits and palm trees, a no-go zone where AK-47s are the weapons of choice and violent crime runs rife.

After Sudan, Congo is the second largest nation in sub-Saharan Africa, a land so vast and ungovernable that it has long been perceived as the continent's ultimate hellhole, the setting for Joseph Conrad's 1899 book Heart of Darkness.
