Angelina Jolie makes cameo in ' Pushing The Elephant ' Trailer

Angelina Jolie makes a cameo appearance in the new documentary Pushing the Elephant, which gives viewers a first person account of Congolese refugee turned human rights activist Rose Mapendo, who is reunited with her teenage daughter after a decade of separation. Rose reunited with her daughter Nangabire in the U.S. and faced the task of building a new future. The documentary follows Rose and Nangabire over the course of a year as they make up for lost time. So how does Angie tie in?

In the documentary, Mapendo commends Angelina, 35 —who serves as a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador — for her humanitarian work during a 2009 UNHCR event in Washington D.C.

Pushing the Elephant is playing Aug. 6-12 at IFC Center in NYC and at the Arclight in L.A. on Aug. 13-19

@Sallyakerti May God give you his peace! I had struggle in my country, but it was of a different kind. It's amazing how strong the human spirit is with God as its foundation. I made myself watch the documentary and I'm definitely going to try harder not to complain as much a I did and be grateful for my life and the new family God has given to me...
