Cinema In Sudan, Conversations With Gadalla Gubara
Director: Frederique Cifuentes Morgan (DOCLAB 2006 Graduate)
Frédérique Cifuentes’s first documentary film, builds up a portrait of a great Sudanese film-maker, Gadalla Gubara (1920 – 2008). He was still working at the age of eighty-eight - one of the pioneers of cinema in Africa. He recently lost his sight but still continued to film life in Sudan as no one before him. Through his oeuvre, Gadalla reveals to us a Sudan both mysterious and misunderstood.
The screening takes place as part of Nour Festival, in partnership with The Rift Valley Institute.
