The Return of Sudanese Cinema
Umloda Ibrahim, a James McCune Smith scholar, will explore the history of Sudan’s film industry on 17th October at the City Art Centre as part of Black History Month Scotland.
About The Return of Sudanese Cinema
African cinema has established a strong presence on the global cinematic stage yet Sudan's film industry, with its history going as far back as 1898, has been overlooked. Umloda Ibrahim, a James McCune Smith scholar, shares her ongoing research and will explore the history of Sudan’s film industry from its colonial and post-independence eras, to the contemporary industry that is being rebuilt today.
