Human emotions to the core displayed beutifully

I watched this movie in International Film festival in Kerala, India .Set in the backdrop of undivided Sudan where Elite arab and Working class Local sudan people live together in Khartom. A Southern Sudan man is killed by an Arab because of a misunderstanding . Police remove his id card from the body and term it as "dead in rio" to save the Arab man. But his wife bribe the police man and find the details of the Southern man's wife and kid and bring them to her house . Then onwards it a saga of human emotions flow cutting the black and white divide. All charectors including the kid are well crafted . First sudani film I saw. Perfect story and direction + Good acting by all charector. The film also shows the plight of womanhood in Arab families.

In the Echoes of Prejudice: A Cinematic Odyssey

This movie truly ranks among the finest I've seen. It unflinchingly explores the darker aspects of our world, unraveling the consequences of racism on seemingly regular people. Drawing parallels to the 2006 Oscar winner "Crash," it manages to maintain an air of mystery without revealing too much in the trailer.The cinematography in this film is a visual feast, capturing the essence of each scene with striking precision. The acting performances are nothing short of superb, with the cast delivering powerful portrayals that breathe life into the characters. The dialogues are not just words; they are a captivating force that keeps you hooked, contributing significantly to the film's overall allure. The combination of excellent cinematography, stellar acting, and engaging dialogue elevates this movie to a cinematic masterpiece, deserving of its high rating.I recommend approaching it with a fresh perspective, and I've given it a well-deserved 9-star rating for its engaging storytelling and exploration of a lesser-known territory.

women faces same issues

Movie about a woman or two women.Within the canvas of Sudan's societal divide between Arab-dominated North and black Sudanese, this film encapsulates the intricacies of conflict, rooted in racism, religion, and politics. It revolves around the struggles faced by one or two women, shedding light on poverty, parenting challenges, and the lack of intimacy in marriage. These issues are interwoven with the repercussions of a couple of well-intentioned lies.Throughout the narrative, the women in this tale are not truly comprehended by the men who claim to love them. Even the children fail to grasp their emotional plight, evoking a sense of helplessness among the audience.The narrative delves deep into the human condition, inviting reflection on pressing global issues often overlooked by mainstream media. Set against the backdrop of 2005 and 2010, the film meticulously crafts its era, portraying an authentic representation of culture, language, and technology. The art direction, including vehicles, gadgets, fashion, and language subtitled for the audience, is commendable.Having watched it at IFFK 2023, the International Film Festival of Kerala, this movie is a compelling and thought-provoking exploration of the intricacies of humanity in the face of societal turmoil.
