US PREMIERE Following four young activists during the Sudanese revolution of 2019, director Hind Meddeb conjures a narrative about collective hope and possible seismic change. Armed with just their words, ideas, poetry, and art, the subjects of this documentary inspire themselves and the audience with their perseverance and clarity of their just demands. In a time when Sudan is facing almost 18 months of violent war, famine, and the indifference of the rest of the world, this film acts as a beacon of hope and confirmation that the people of Sudan will persist and insist on a bright future. – Murtada Elfadl
The first and second screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Hind Meddeb.
