Ten years later, the U.S. agreed to resettle some of the Lost Boys to America. Panther Bior, John Bul Dau, and Daniel Pach were three of the main characters who were followed in this documentary. I was fortunate enough to throw an event for the opening night of a “Lost Boys of Sudan” film screening. It was a different documentary, based on a group of young men who fled Sudan. The documentary that I saw was mainly about the wars in Sudan and how they got to the refugee camp.

Neil Leifer and the Impact of Sports Photography It is known throughout photography, that it is tough to capture pictures in motion, Neil Leifer proved to be a master of this through his photography, and is arguably the best sports photographer of all time. Leifer used his photographs to display a couple of reoccurring themes over his years in sports photography. First, Leifer used his photography to display the strong bonds and friendships that are made on the field during sports. Leifer does a great job of expressing the closest relationships that are born from people helping each other. In contrast to that, it is also common to see people fighting people, in more of a dog-eat-dog depiction of the world’s citizens.

Yali asked many questions as they talked about the origins of their ancestors and the evolution of it. A question Yali asks is “why is it you white people developed so much cargo and brought it to New Guinea, but we black people had little cargo of our own?” It was a simple question but has inspired Jared Diamond to write this book as he attempts to answer Yali’s question decades later.

“Journalists know that the stories we work on are far bigger than we are,” Nachtwey said. We can see a lot of real life stories from his work. Sometimes even only there is no background and only the person looked at us in the photo. There can be a lot of meanings and stories.

Dadi Wirz lives in Basel, Switzerland and was born in NewGuinea. Dadi Wirz’ father, Paul Wirz (1892-1955) was a famous anthropologist and passionate collector of oceanic artefacts. Dadi Wirz visited New Guinea a few times after Paul Wirz’ death in 1955 to photograph a world that lies according to Wirz at the “dawn of the world”. With his photographs he created an aesthetic tension longing for ethnographic humanness as much as values and emotion of individuals. His work has become an exploration mirroring the search for the self for Wirz who has always been standing in his famous father’s shadow.

At the end of the year, we went camping on the Cilember Camping Site in southern Indonesia. We went there to practice what we had learned from being in red-cross for six months.
