''The Road to Home'' is a 2015 feature-length documentary〔Dancing Turtle Films http://www.dancingturtle.org/portfolio/the-road-to-home/〕 about Benny Wenda, the West Papuan independence leader. Since his dramatic escape from an Indonesian prison in 2002,〔Democracy Now feature http://www.democracynow.org/blog/2013/8/20/as_indonesia_threatens_west_papuan_freedom_flotilla_benny_wenda_on_struggle_for_independencea〕 where he was held in isolation and tortured as a political prisoner,〔West Papua website http://freewestpapua.org/info/benny-wendas-story/〕 Benny has been an unceasing crusader on the international scene, campaigning to bring about an end to the suffering of his people at the hands Indonesia’s colonial regime.〔New Internationalist http://newint.org/features/web-exclusive/2014/08/05/benny-wenda-interview/〕 ==Background== Granted political asylum in the UK in 2004, Wenda’s freedom of movement was restricted in 2011 when, at the behest of the Indonesian government, Interpol issued a ‘red notice’ putting him at extreme risk of extradition should he travel.〔Daily Telegraph http://www.telegraph.co.uk/expat/expatlife/8920491/Benny-Wenda-Theres-a-silent-genocide-going-on-in-West-Papua.html〕 The following year the ‘red notice’ was lifted after being deemed “predominantly political in nature”.〔BBC News http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-19149678〕 Wenda then embarked on a world-wide “Freedom Tour”〔Benny Wenda website article http://bennywenda.org/2013/freedom-tour/〕 to build support and awareness for the West Papuan Independence movement. To date Benny has performed and spoken in such diverse places as New Zealand, Australia, Switzerland, Poland, the United Kingdom, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, the United States of America, and many others.
