Join our good friends the Film High Club (Maghreb Ciné's world cinema strand) for a screening of the Sudanese feature, Talking About Trees (with an intro).
Filmmakers Ibrahim, Suliman, Eltayeb and Manar, close friends for many years, left their motherland in the sixties and seventies to study film abroad and founded the Sudanese Film Group in 1989. After years of distance and exile, they are reunited, hoping to finally make their old dream come true: to bring back cinema to Sudan by reopening the Halfaia Cinema, a dilapidated cinema in Khartoum (-Letterboxd).
The screening will be introduced by an invited speaker and a post-screening discussion will follow the film.
