《當我們談論樹的時候》是由知名导演蘇哈伊布·加斯梅爾巴裏 执导的一部紀錄片，蘇萊曼·易蔔拉欣 易蔔拉欣·沙達德 等倾情出演，该片讲述了： 蘇利曼和“蘇丹電影俱樂部”的另外三名成員決定重振一家舊電影院。他們不僅因爲對電 影的熱愛和對恢複舊電影存量、再 次關注蘇 丹電影曆史的 強烈渴望而團結在一起，而 且因爲他們都曾在流放中接 受過電影教育。不知 疲倦地，他們試圖讓影院老板站在他們一邊，讓這 個地方重新運作起 來，但他們一再發現自己遭到了相當大的阻力。同時，他們坐在一起談論過去——包括他們作爲對立 藝術家遭受迫害甚至折磨的 經曆。他們還朗讀流亡和夢想蘇丹時寫的舊信 ，在那裏藝術和智力思想 可以自由。“我們比他們聰明，但不如他們強大，”他們一 致總結了 他們的處境。正是在這些簡 潔的時刻，觀衆才能夠感知到友誼，以及在爲共同理想而鬥爭中存在的紐帶和意識形態的團結。 蘇哈伊布·加斯 梅爾巴裏把蘇丹電影的曆 史放在影片的中心，同時也揭示了一個受到持續危機 影響的國家的現狀 Su liman a nd three further members of th e ‘Sudanese Film Club’ have decided t o revive an old cinema.
