Five Khartoum residents from different walks of life, share their experiences of conflict and exile after escaping the Sudanese capital following a military coup and the outbreak of war. The filmmakers – also displaced by the war – weave together a personal and insightful film comprising footage shot prior to the escape, staged reenactments, and stories of migration and survival, highlighting the human cost of this conflict.

Contains scenes of war and graphic violence or injury.

Presented in partnership with the International Organization for Migration (IOM).

The Q&A session is organised in collaboration with International Broadcasting Trust.
