Filming Under the Shadow of Genocide: Sudan Filmmakers Solidarity

  • Palestine Pavilion International Village Pantiero 206 Cannes, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, 06400 France (map)

How do films find a language in a time of Genocide that goes beyond the saturated news footage? Visibility is key but risks dehumanising the very people whose stories we are telling. This Cross-regional solidarity initiative seeks to consolidate networks of filmmakers in times of profound upheaval. This Palestine Pavilion gathering highlights the work of Sudanese filmmakers with their newly released films and current projects in a space of discussion, networking and solidarity. The conversations will be led by celebrated Sudanese filmmakers Ibrahim Snoopy (Khartoum), Suzannah Mirghani (Cotton Queen), Mazin Gamar (The Militia & Me), and Sara Suliman (Heroic Bodies). 

This panel and reception that follows were made possible through the long term collaboration and ongoing support from IEFTF
