No Simple Way Home also known as Nie ma prostej drogi do domu is a 2022 South Sudanese-South African documentary film written and directed by South Sudanese filmmaker Akuol de Mabior on her documentary directorial debut. The film was premiered at the 2022 International Filmfestival Amsterdam. The film encounters the daily struggles of people in South Sudan and recounts the story of the most prominent political family in South Sudan's history. It became the first ever South Sudanese film to be screened at the Berlin International Film Festival.




Synopsis


The documentary owes tribute to filmmaker Akuol de Mabior's own father John Garang de Mabior who was widely acknowledged and recognised for his prominent role in pioneering the liberation movement South Sudan People's Defence Forces for nearly two decades or so in the Southern part of Sudan (which is now known as a separate independent country in the name of South Sudan which gained independence in 2011) and he is currently considered as the founding father of South Sudan who had eventually died in a helicopter crash in 2005 just three weeks after taking oath as Vice President of Sudan and he would later be hailed as a national hero of South Sudan. Akuol was just 16 when her father died in the helicopter crash. The documentary also gives spotlight on former Vice President of South Sudan Rebecca Nyandeng De Mabior who is dubbed as the motherfigure of South Sudan. After growing up in exile, filmmaker Akuol de Mabior returns home to South Sudan to follow her mother's journey into politics. When peace in South Sudan hangs in the balance, the filmmaker returns home from exile with her mother and sister.
