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.
