السودان يا غالي

In a Sudan torn apart by years of war, this documentary immerses us in the daily fight of young Sudanese. Their stories, both harrowing and inspiring, remind us of the ability to find hope even in the darkest of circumstances. This is a call to attention to a forgotten crisis, and a tribute to the power of creativity as a tool of survival and resistance.

Production

Filming began in 2019 in Khartoum and covered events up to the beginning of the civil war in 2023. Meddeb focussed her documentation on young and often female protesters who represent the generation strongly involved in the uprising. Other than traditional documentary techniques such as hand-held camera work, Meddeb included found footage of vertical smartphone videos in the style of gonzo journalism.
