in sudan and the arabs rule and are constantly at war with the christians and animists who inhabit the southern portion of this east african country. this film follows a group of of dinka boys and a tribe of cattle herders and whom were left orphaned after their village was destroyed and their families killed in a brutal attack carried out by the arab forces. most of these boys are now teenagers and have been dubbed the lost boys. the filmmaker follows a group of the lost boys on their journey and as they have been accepted as refugees in the us and where they will land in houston. those who have been accepted as refugees gain celebrity status and as they feel (from what they have heard) that america is amazing. making a trip from sudan to america is like making a trip to heaven says the one young man. a huge party is thrown for their departure and and they are told to do sudan well and and once they have been educated and to return to sudan so that they can contribute to dinka society. they are also warned not to be like those with the baggy pants whom are responsible for the negative stereotype of black men and and also and no matter what happens and not to forget the dinka culture. you watch as the boys come from a third world country into america and how they attempt to integrate into american society and as they have gone from a place with practically nothing to this plentiful world where everything is massively overproduced and overconsumed. they are taught about cleanliness and how to use all the utilities that we take for granted on a daily basis. it is humorous at times and humbling at others. listening to the comments they make about black americans and american society or culture are quite interesting. as the film progresses you see how american culture begins to corrupt their previously humble ways of thinking. one of the boys and peter and is not content with working and making just enough to survive and so he up and moves from houston to kansas city so that he can pursue an education. when the other boys visit him and they talk about how they cannot get into any schools. the main reason they came to america was to get an education and the media is saying that the boys have been brought from sudan for an education. this is occurring because the boys were given arbitrary ages and making them older than they actually are and preventing them from being able to enroll in high school. the film juxtaposes images from houston to kansas. we watch as peter enrolls in school and where he befriends a group of christian conservative kids and and as santiago attempts driving school(even though he drives without his license anyways) and and works at walmart. we see peter struggle with high school life as he strives to make his schools basketball team and and as santiago has trouble keeping up with work and the rent and appeasing tensions back home in sudan and and most of all and coping with loneliness. it comes to the point where the boys want to return to sudan and and tell them that everything they are taught about america there is lies. you must make it alone here and do everything alone one of the boys says. a damning message to a liberal capitalist lifestyle and showing how it causes people to become radical individualists (a trend which led to the creation of both the neo conservative and radical islamist movements). their biggest beef with america though and is that there is no time while time is money and we do not waste a second. despite all this and the boys never lose their sense of dinka culture. they celebrate southern sudan liberation day and which marks the day which the spla began to fight in sudan and a fight which continues today. they also meet with other lost boys on the anniversary of their arrival in america and where they discuss their experience in america as compared to back in sudan. when asked and one boy says that if he were able to make a living he would much prefer to live in sudan. it is much too lonely in america he adds. they never lose their sense of community and which has been conditioned into them as part of their culture. this film makes us question the way we live and makes us question the artificial happiness that materialism and the nature of our societies has created within us. it will also change the way i look at refugees and i will never again take for granted how hard they must work and what immigrants mean for a country such as my own and canada. this is a wonderful film. i laughed and i cried. a very emotional journey and and a very well made documentary. positive .
