‘No Simple Way Home’: New film portrays South Sudan’s ‘mother of the nation’

A new film paints a portrait of the woman known in South Sudan as the « mother of the nation ». The film follows Rebecca Nyandeng de Mabior, who is the widow of revolutionary leader and national hero John Garang de Mabior, in her role as the country’s vice president amid a fragile peace deal in the country. The portrait is remarkable for its intimate access as its director is also her daughter, Akuol de Mabior. She joined us for Perspective to tell us more about « No Simple Way Home ».
