We Come as Friends documents the split of Sudan into two countries — a heightened moment of contested land. Director Hubert Sauper captures South Sudan's struggle after independence as they negotiate with powerful stakeholders – including North American Christian evangelists, Sudanese warlords, Chinese miners and UN peacekeepers. Through a series of frank interviews and heartbreaking situations of power imbalance, such as a village representative who has signed away the village's land for a pittance, We Come as Friends is an eye-opening account of neo-colonialism.
