Full Plot Details

In 1987, Sudan's Muslim government pronounced death to all males in the Christian south: 27,000 boys fled to Ethiopia on foot. In 1991, they were forced to flee to Kenya; 12,000 survived to live in a U.N. camp in Kakuma. Archival footage documents the 1,000 mile flight; we see life in the camp. We follow three young men who repatriate to the U.S. John Bul Dau goes to Syracuse, and by the film's end, becomes a spokesperson for the Lost Boys and Lost Girls of Sudan; Daniel Abol Pach and Panther Bior go to Pittsburgh. All work several jobs, send money back to the camp, search for relatives lost in the civil war, acclimatize to the U.S., seek an education, and miss their homeland.

Movie Reviews

www.susangranger.com - 10/10 by Susan GrangerAn inspiring documentary, proving that the American Dream is still alive and that the human spirit is, indeed, indomitable.
Compuserve - 9/10 by Harvey S. KartenAmid all the cynicism, the barbs directed by the world at America, how refreshing it is to see our country standing up for our true ideals!
Newsday - 9/10 by Gene SeymourThe movie manages to be an elegantly rendered portrait of the refugees' uneasy, but dogged engagement of American possibility, braced by an equally dogged plea to acknowledge the horrible conflict that still keeps them from returning home.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Carina ChocanoQuinn discovers an unexpectedly funny, trenchant fish-out-of-water-eye-view of American life.
Los Angeles Daily News - 9/10 by Bob StraussGod Grew Tired of Us cares more about hope than it does full disclosure, and it goes about that agenda pretty expertly. It's emotional and smart.
Reel.com - 9/10 by Pam GradyThe three men profiled in this insightful documentary are unforgettable, and so is the film. Sudan has been much in the news. God Grew Tired of Us personalizes it and puts a human face on the catastrophe.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution - 9/10 by Melinda EnnisWhile it is emotionally and spiritually satisfying, its optimistic point of view avoids harder truths it might have explored.
Entertainment Insiders - 9/10 by Jonathan W. HickmanIt is a story worth telling over and over.
Arizona Republic - 9/10 by Bill MullerThere's no way to not like [John] Dau. Or for that matter, God Grew Tired of Us.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 9/10 by Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)God Grew Tired of Us is a better film than Lost Boys of Sudan, focusing on details of the men's lives and shifting fluidly between three distinct "characters": John, Daniel and Panther.
