This is Rose Achan Beryl’s story.

During a 7-week visit to Southern Sudan, I interviewed about a dozen Southern Sudanese men and women. Each one offers an intimate view of their lives during the 21-year civil war and since the signing of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement in 2005. We get a glimpse into their family lives and their hope for a country with an uncertain future.

Interview recorded in Warrap Town, and roving footage from back of motorbike recorded in Wau (March 2009).
