Beats of the Antonov: Trailer

Preview: Season 28 Episode 7 | 1m 23s

Sudanese civilians facing government bombing celebrate their heritage through music.

Sudan has been in an almost constant state of civil war since it achieved independence in 1956, and it split into a pair of sovereign states in 2011. Beats of the Antonov explores how music binds a community together, offering hope and a common identity for refugees engaged in a fierce battle to protect cultural traditions and heritage from those trying to obliterate them.
