After 30 years of dictatorship, in April 2019, the Sudanese people brought down the tyrant Omar El-Bechir. Shajan, Rufaida, Maha are just some of the faces of this revolution. Their dreams of freedom and equality are coming up against the impossible transition from military dictatorship to civilian government.

Hind MEDDEB
Hind Meddeb grew up in France, Morocco and Tunisia, the latter two her countries of origin. This cross-pollination of cultures and languages has given her a unique way of looking at the world. In her documentaries, she observes all forms of resistance to the established order, filming from the side of those who rebel. In her approach to the Arab and African worlds, she seeks to break down the prejudices that constrain the Western imagination. Between 2011 and 2013, during the Arab Spring, she directed Tunisia Clash and Electro Chaabi, two feature-length documentaries on musical creation as a revolutionary act. Her previous film, Paris Stalingrad, follows the journey of Souleymane, a young Sudanese poet and survivor of the genocide in Darfur, who arrives in Paris. Her latest feature film, Sudan, remember us, is a long-form portrait of Sudanese youth in their quest for freedom. The film was presented at the 2024 Venice Film Festival (Giornate Degli Autori) and Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF Docs).
