All about Darfur

Synopsis

Taking the situation in Darfur as its catalyst the film is the contemplative journey of the film-maker to the land of her birth at a time of crisis. She examines the race dynamic in Sudanese society through the prism of her own experience of race in Britain and Sudan.
Darfur is on everyone's mind, from pedlars in the souk to professors at the University and the film offers a unique opportunity to see and hear Sudanese people articulating how they feel about the Darfur crisis, about race and politics in their country and about the place and role of the international community in their affairs.

Africa Express Africa Express

Director: Emilio Guerrero Alexander

Year: 2026

Founded in 2004 by Damon Albarn and Ian Birrell, the UK music collective Africa Express has spent two decades bringing artists together across borders. In February 2024 it arrived in the Americas for the first time. Over eight days in Las Estacas, Mexico, more than 60 musicians from Africa, Latin America, Europe and the United States came together to rehearse, perform and create an album from scratch. Following Africa Express from Mexico through Europe and back, the film becomes a poetic journey through music, memory and imagination, celebrating the power of collaboration and community as reality slowly blurs with fantasy. With no single protagonist, the collective itself is the main character and music is its language. Africa Express is a portrait of a fleeting community and of what strangers from different worlds can build when they truly listen to each other.
