God grew tired of us

this inspirational film documents refugees fled from the horrible attack in Sudan civil war between north and south from 1983 to 2005. the Sudan government at that time had decided to kill off any men from the infant to the elder in the southern part of Sudan due to the religious and cultural differences.those children, especially the boys are named "the lost boys (girls)" after the war tearing them apart from their own mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, and any related family. the whole point of this film roughly shows how "the lost boys" escaped from the genocide, walked miles and miles to reach the refugee camp in Kenya, where they were situated over decades, and a few of them grabbed an opportunity to come to America. The story does not just end there, or rather starts from there. through their experiences, struggles and confusion after the first day of landing their feet in America bring us the true sense of meaning to the purpose of life. it's inspirational, and a great reminder to seek for what is each of our purpose on this earth as a human being.
