For The Nile Is My Genesis offers poignant stories of reflection, joy and resilience by six Sudanese filmmakers. These films, which span a decade and a half, examine the complexities of identity, society, and home.
Observe the capital on the verge of change as the streets hum with the beats of hip-hop and the chants of revolution. Whilst a beauty salon hides a secret and a woman prepares for her smoke bath, a rickshaw driver struggles to overcome his past. From diasporic meditations on memory and girlhood, to a jujitsu team travelling to Nairobi, a young man anxiously navigates confinement. This collection of shorts serves as a warm reminder that the bonds of kinship and heritage will see us through.
