Link: Watch Atak’s winning film here
SBS launched a competition inviting 14- to 20-year-olds to submit a video pitch about their identity, the prize, a chance to have their short film on air. The response was overwhelming with many inspiring entries from across the nation. Five finalists were invited to attend a residential storytelling workshop in Melbourne, and with the help of SBS and the Foundation for Young Australians (FYA) produced a short film about their story.
Winner Atak Ngor, 18, was born in what is now South Sudan during the Second Sudanese Civil War. His film is dedicated to those he left behind.
