The Nature of Distance observes this thread of identity, grief and resistance as it intersects with filmmaking and social media. This two-part event showcases the creative ways the Sudanese diaspora have used digital media platforms and filmmaking/content creation to reflect on their memories, positionality and share their own story in reaction to periods of conflict in Sudan.
On the evening of 29th January, there will be a film screening and Q&A will take place bringing together Sudanese digital creators’ work alongside the short documentary My Sister, Sara.
