Experience Sudanese Perspectives in our SPACE Cinema  Club

Sudan's cinematic landscape is marked by a rich history. The very fact that there was a cinema-rich period in Sudan from the 60s to the 80s is a testament to the filmmakers’ ability to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles. SPACE is frequently screening Sudanese movies and documataries.

There was a revival of cinema and movie production in the recent years. Although there are ongoing issues of accessibility and comparisons to foreign cinema, an argument can be made that every Sudanese movie is worth watching as an insight into Sudanese perspectives. Diversity in people, culture, music, nature, habits, values and ethnic groups, as well as variety in both African and Arab cultures, give Sudan an excellent opportunity to flourish in the filmmaking industry. Furthermore, the country’s diverse nature, the beauty of the Nile, flora and desert provide perfect scenes for the cinema industry that can be marketed globally as Port Sudan does.
