- On the White Nile, by filmmaker Akuol de Mabior, takes us into the world of Rebecca Lith Chol.
From the stern of her long wooden boat, Rebecca steers her crew down the White Nile, running her small fishing business.
She is a formidable, courageous woman - in charge of her boat, her business and her destiny.
Hers is a precarious living, but despite a life of hardship, her philosophical outlook and strong heart drive her forward.
Director/producer Akuol de Mabior is a South Sudanese filmmaker based in Nairobi, Kenya. She has directed short films that have been screened at festivals around the world and is currently working on her first feature documentary, Nyandeng, which received the Whickers Film and TV Funding Award (2020) and the IDFA Bertha Classic Fund (2020).

Wonderful to see a story of South Sudan that is not about war, violence or poverty.
Beautifully done!
I am west African Liberian and I love these people with my whole heart 🥺❤️❤️❤️ wish they can be in west Africa 😭😭😭🇱🇷🇸🇸
The story was wonderful, the translation magnificent. This what happened when the films directed, translated, and filmed by locals of the community.
I agree
It's made by Akuol de Mabior, daughter of John Garang, the "George Washington of South Sudan!!"
Thank You For sharing this encouraging story. The courage and ingenuity of this Sudanese woman is a wonderful example for others. Such a positive story rather than one of violence and the cruel effects of war. SHALOM!

We need more stories like these out of South Sudan, merci beaucoup.
So beautiful video, with excellent translation
That touched me so deeply. Well done to the whole team!
God bless south sudan 🇸🇸🇸🇸🇸🇸
She's a true hustler. Doing such kind of business in a patriarchy dominated society required tough skin. Thanks Akuol De Mabior for bringing this story to light.
..."patriarchy"??? Never again use a computer, calculate, telephone, internet, freedom of expression and press, democratic State of law, universal vote, musical scale do-ré-mi-fa-sol-la-si, car, plane, bicycle, vaccines, antibiotics, scientific method, universities, mathematics, philosophy, modern medicine and etc. since ALL OF THIS WAS INVENTED by straight Eurocentric white men.

Amazing story in my Dinka dialect
Pre-colonial African women were never excluded from traditional economic systems, unlike the West with its restrictions for women in banking and finance. African women are by default entrepreneurial and this tradition lives on to this day.
This isn't bravo, this is commendations to her for upholding African traditions👍🏿
You are the only one that understands true African tradition and culture.
yes hard work!!! i like delivery people or companies.
Awesome video 👍🏻👍🏻
the 16 personality traits are in another dimension so are the big 5 personality traits.
The Dinkas with their beautiful language
Watching in France , I am of African descent but unfortunately never set foot on the continent , my great great grandfather was born in Africa , I think … but he migrated to England!
