Film Lens
The documentary focuses on the ongoing conflict in Sudan, which has been raging since April 2023. It shows the devastating impact of the war on civilians, with 12 million people displaced and half the population in urgent need of food aid. The film provides a firsthand account of the violence and destruction, including personal stories from children like Maya, who fled her home due to the fighting between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces.
Through interviews and on-the-ground footage, the film captures the dire humanitarian situation in Port Sudan, where many internally displaced people have sought refuge. Despite the critical conditions in the camps, the documentary also shows moments of hope as families maintain connections and look forward to reuniting once the conflict subsides.
