In a world defined by conflict and struggle, Sudan stands as a testament to resilience, hope, and unyielding spirit of its people. Join us for an immersive evening as we present "Sudan through Film", an event that sheds light on the diverse narratives emerging from Sudan. Through powerful storytelling, we will explore the complexities of Sudan's past and present, fostering empathy and inspiring support for a brighter future.

As we gather for this film screening, we invite you to engage with the powerful narratives that reflect the realities of life in Sudan. The evening will focus on the film Heroic Bodies, directed by Sara Suliman, which highlights the struggles and resilience of Sudanese women, offering a powerful glimpse into their personal experiences and the challenges of gender roles and inequality.

The screening will begin with an introduction by the members of Philly For Sudan, who will provide context for the films and the themes they explore. Following the screenings, we will hold a short panel discussion with community members. This conversation will delve into the stories presented on screen and the broader socio-political issues facing Sudan today.
In addition to the films, attendees will have the chance to connect with local Sudanese organizations, learning more about their work and contributions to the community.
