Here is the trailer from the upcoming film “SUDAN, REMEMBER US.” The film is directed by Hind Meddeb, starring Shajane Suliman, Ahmed Muzamil, Maha Elfaki, Khatab Ahmed.
In 2019, documentary filmmaker Hind Meddab flew to Sudan to film a sit-in protest at the Army headquarters in Khartoum. The people of Sudan were assembling, demanding reform after decades of military dictatorship. There she met a selection of young activists that she would continue to film over the course of 4 years, from the swell of hope and accomplishment following dictator Omar al-Bashir’s fall to the oppression of the military crackdown and subsequent civil war, which today, leaves Sudan in ruins.
Standing in front of a powerful army, how could the civilian movement find the strength to persist? In conversations, in demonstrations, on walls, it emerges how the Sudanese tradition for poetry becomes a powerful tool for activism. Art, music and poetry bolster every stage of the Sudanese fight for freedom. SUDAN, REMEMBER US bears witness to a lost revolution and within it unearths a tribute to the power of creativity as a tool of survival and resistance.
