Sudan focus at Arab Film FestivalAfter the overthrow of Sudanese dictator Omar al-Bashir in 2019, the country experienced a brief phase of relief and hope. Two years later, the civilian government was deposed in a military coup - and in 2023, civil war broke out. This led to widespread violence, including rapes and massacres, and the displacement of millions of Sudanese. Rabab Baldo, activist and member of our network Feminists Connecting for Peace, will take part in the Sudan panel at the Arab Film Festival on 5 April 2025. |
