This is a series of video portraits taken during interviews with Southern Sudanese NGO workers during a visit to Southern Sudan and of Southern Sudan refugees from Sud Academy in Nairobi, Kenya. These are the first two of thirteen video portraits recorded during my March/April 2009 visit to the region. Everyone was asked the same four questions: 1) to introduce themselves; 2) to tell their history from the day they were born to the present and related it to the history of Sudan; 3) to indicate their role in keeping peace in Sudan; and 4) to add anything else they have yet to say. To avoid censorship and to honour each person’s life story, I have not edited out any information, unless it was particularly repetitive, so their stories remain intact. As each person tells their unique story, they reveal intimate pieces of Southern Sudan’s history, they present their present concerns and offer their visions for the future of a place in rapid and fragile transition.
