Summary
Director Taghreed Elsanhouri says she felt uniquely qualified to make this documentary "because as a northerner in Sudan I know what it is to belong to a dominant group, and as a black woman in Britain I know what it's like to be marginalized." The film follows Elsanhouri as she returns to Sudan to see how the seemingly-racially harmonious country of her youth could have become the scene of two of the worst instances of ethnic cleansing in recent African history. Talking with Sudanese people in cafes, markets, refugee camps, and living rooms, Elsanhouri finds that race does matter.
