God Grew Tired of Us

Watched this once and was touched then watched it with my 10 year old daughter,heavy maybe but that is why I wanted to watch it with her. Having a dialogue with her I learned so much more than when I watched by myself.

This is a heart-wrenching, beautifully filmed documentary about the true story of "the lost boys" of Sudan. I saw it first at Sundance film festival in 2006 and have never forgotten the images.

I think this is a wonderful film especially to show to kids. They will see how blessed they are in America and appreciate the value of an education.

Enlightening, heartbreaking, inspiring: don't miss this film. As an American it opened my eyes to our selfishness, our material world, and how it clashes with other cultures.

You walk away realizing how blessed, lucky and lazy we are, as we watch these men navigate a new life in America.

The film is about the lives of Lost Boys after they came to U.S.

Christopher Quinn has compiled a wonderful documentary about three Lost Boys of the Sudanese Genocide who immigrate to America to find new lives. He cites the history and how they became the lost boys through the systematic genocide in Sudan and how they migrated to refugee camps first in Ethiopia and second in Kenya.

Since 2003, there have been a few movies out telling and showing the world, as much as they can that is, just what is going on in Sudan. Kind of like all those movies about Rwanda.

Sudan's Muslim majority in the north brutally attacks the Christian and animist south for its oil. Many were massacred, enslaved and driven from their homes.
