Heroic Bodies

In connection with Khalid Albaih's exhibition Refresh at Kunstnernes Hus, we invite you to an evening of Sudanese film in the cinema.

Sudanese women have been denied the right to their own bodies throughout the modern age, while enduring brutal and unfathomable forms of oppression. The film Heroic Bodies by Sara Suliman explores the various forms of struggle and resistance of Sudanese women.

The screening is a collaboration between Kunstnernes Hus and Arab Film Days.
