1961, the former Belgian Congo is in turmoil, the uranium rich soil (which made possible the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki) is wanted by both USA and USSR, the U.N. sends Irish peacekeepers http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3922798/. Things don't go the way UN people have envisioned. All the guns you'll see are collectible antiques now. Elephants and guns, war the African style, I am just happy not to read subtitles (there is just a bit of French in the movie). Here is the historic link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Jadotville
