Summary |
Erez T Yanuv Barzilay about his film “These immense scenes of human suffering are haunting me to this day. Especially knowing not much has changed during the past 50 years. The misfortune has only spread to the adjacent Darfur region, a bit further north,” writes Erez in the non-narrated film’s closing remarks. Erez’ camera focuses on the fate of 5 years old Madiom Madiok and follows other starving victims as they try to get assistance from international humanitarian aid agencies. The camera also portrays Canadian nurse Christine Nadori in her impossible task of determining the most malnutrition affected children and infants to get into the emergency feeding program. Erez hopes that the attention recently granted to the Darfur region will generate some positive actions to stop the unbelievable suffering of the civilian population in the whole of southern Sudan. ” It is a unique documentary. It’s a powerful and dreadful experience. A rare insight into an isle of desperate hope in the ocean of misery called “South Sudan”. A testimony, to the lives of some of the most unfortunate victims of Africa’s longest war and the few Westerners that came to their aid. Former Israeli television journalist Erez T Yanuv Barzilay witnessed the horrific situation in southern Sudan during two visits in 1993 and 1998.
