The Review

The lost boys of Sudan. More than a mere group of boys, the term encompassed the refugees escaping the genocide that was happening in Sudan and surrounding areas. Many of them walking hundreds of miles across a harsh environment to reach Kakuma. Once arriving the lives of these 4 siblings began to change with the help of relief agencies, their future became a reality instead of a dream. As time passes, small groups are chosen to go to America. One day at the time of posting, they are surprised to see their names on this magical list that will give them a new life. As they travel to America, they experience many new things along with some challenges but nothing compared to what they will face when they arrive. Starting at the airport there's a hardship they weren't anticipating. As they begin settling into their new lives everything is different to them. They have what they've known all their lives and then they have their new lives. How will they find harmony between the two or is it possible. They'll find out as time passes. Just as things start to fall into order, something happens that stops the program that has brought them here and is in the way for what they are desperate to do. One of them finds a way to maybe get some answers, he does whatever it takes to make it happen. Will he succeed or will he get lost in the mess. This inspiring story is told about the kakuma refugees by refugees themselves. Not a representation of anyone's actual lives but more of a collective based on real happenings. Showing the strength of those involved, their pain, hardships and victories. A truly uplifting story that will have a lasting impact on all who see/experience it.
