Feature Films
Sand and Sorrow: Paul Freedman manages to give voice to the ever-growing and inspiring movement of those who wish to make “Never Again” finally mean something.
They Turned Our Desert Into Fire: The film presents a most compelling question: "Which had greater impact, showing photographs of the Darfur genocide to passengers on the train or showing them to members of Congress?"
The Art of Flight: The film serves as a back story to the 2006 massacre of Sudanese refugees in Cairo, and tells the story of three people, a refugee from southern Sudan, a human rights activist from northern Sudan and an American journalist in self-imposed exile, all living in Cairo.
Darfur Diaries: In 2004, a team of three independent filmmakers left for Darfur, Sudan and eastern Chad. The team set out with the goal of providing a platform for the people of Darfur to speak for themselves about their experiences, their fears, and their hopes for the future.
All About Darfur: While documenting the atrocities taking place in Darfur, Taghreed Elsanhouri encourages viewers to understand that the ethnic strife in Darfur is a product of scarcity, as Darfurians are dividing along ethnic lines to battle for limited resources.
The Devil Came on Horseback: This film exposes the tragedy taking place in Darfur as seen through the eyes of an American witness who has since returned to the US to take action to stop it.
Darfur Now: The new documentary featuring “Hotel Rwanda” star Don Cheadle, and the Genocide Intervention Network’s own Adam Sterling, director of the Sudan Divestment Task Force! “Darfur Now” is a story of hope in the midst of one of humanity's darkest hours — a call to action for people everywhere to end the catastrophe unfolding in Darfur, Sudan. Watch the trailer.

Images from the Global Days for Darfur
To call attention to the escalating violence and the continued failure of the international community to adequately respond to this crisis, activists across the world came together for the Global Days for Darfur. This week of rallies, marches and vigils ran from April 23–30, 2007, and highlighted that "time is running out" for the people of Darfur.
The campaign was sponsored nationally by the Save Darfur Coalition, of which the Genocide Intervention Network is a part.
