Lost in Darfur, Mariam's story

11-12-2009 FilmRef. V-F-CR-F-01041-B

When the conflict in Darfur, west Sudan, broke out in 2003, hundreds of thousands of people lost their homes. Many sought shelter in camps but many more had to survive without help from anyone. Mariam was one of them. She remembers the terrible night the fighters came to her village, driving her out of her home with her baby on her back.
