A collective portrait of the young Sudanese generation fighting for freedom through their words, poems, chants, and artistic creativity. Dreaming of a new Sudan led by a democratic and civilian government, they risk everything in their impassioned revolution to overthrow the country’s military regime in the tumultuous years leading up to the Sudanese Civil War and their subsequent exile.
