‘Sudan, Remember Us' wins Audience Award at FCAT 2025
The film depicts the 2019 overthrow of Sudanese leader Omar Al-Bashir and the subsequent civil war that followed. The documentary Sudan, Remember Us, directed by French journalist-turned-filmmaker Hind Meddeb, has won the TV5Monde Plus Audience Award at the 22nd African Film Festival of Tarifa-Tangier (FCAT 2025), marking a major recognition for the powerful portrait of Sudanese youth resistance. The film originally premiered on August 30, 2024, in the Giornate degli Autori section at the 81st Venice International Film Festival. It follows the lives of five young Sudanese revolutionaries—Shajane, Maha, Muzamil, Rufaida and Khattab—as they confront authoritarian rule through political and artistic expression. Through poems, chants, and unwavering activism, the film paints a collective portrait of a generation determined to fight for freedom in Khartoum. The narrative traces their journey from the historic 57-day sit-in at the Army headquarters to the June 3, 2019, massacre, the 2021 military coup, and the outbreak of war that ultimately pushed them into exile. The documentary not only highlights personal and political resilience but also sheds light on the broader context of military violence in regions like Darfur, Kordofan, and Blue Nile. Produced by Abel Nahmias of Echo Films, Michel Zana and Alice Ormières of Blue Train Films, and Tao Guiga of My Way, the France-Tunisia co-production amplifies the voices of a generation seeking justice and change, bringing their struggle to a global audience.

Explained: Why BTS' label Hybe's chairman is facing life imprisonment over fraud allegations
BTS fans around the world are eagerly waiting for the K-pop band's reunion after the remaining members are released from military duty in June. However, Bang Si-hyuk, the man who formed BTS, is currently under investigation after being accused of fraudulent and unfair trading practices. According to Korean media outlets, Bang Si-hyuk, 52, is being investigated by the Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) for allegedly misleading investors and bagging about 400 billion won ($289 million) during the company's initial public offering (IPO) process. Did Bang Si-hyuk deceive investors? Sources say the FSS has evidence suggesting Bang may have engaged in deceptive practices involving private equity firms. Back in 2019, when Hybe was still known as BigHit Entertainment, existing shareholders were told there was had no immediate plans to go public, persuading some investors to sell their stakes to a private equity fund allegedly set up by an associate. However, the company simultaneously began the process to go public after Bang allegedly signed a private shareholders' agreement with local PEFs to share profits from a future listing, a deal that was not disclosed at the time. While investors suffered heavy losses from the post-IPO sell-off, the private equity fund reaped a large profit after the company went public. The alleged gains from the scheme are estimated at around 400 billion won ($290 million). The BigHit IPO filed in October 2020 increased Bang's net worth to $2.8 billion, reportedly making him the only billionaire in South Korea's entertainment industry and the sixth-richest person in the country. Could it lead to life imprisonment? The FSS is investigating Bang's transactions with the PEFs and plans to refer the case to prosecutors for potential criminal prosecution, according to KED Global. HYBE's alleged secret profit-sharing agreement between Bang and the PEFs could constitute a violation of disclosure rules under the Capital Markets Act. If found guilty, Bang could face a prison sentence of five years or more, or a life sentence, if the profit exceeds 5 billion won. Meanwhile, BTS ARMY around the world are eagerly waiting for the seven band members to reunite. While j-hope and Jin have already completed their mandatory military service, Jungkook, Jumin, V, RM and Suga are set to be released from their duties in June.

'M*A*S*H' actress Loretta Swit dies at 87
Loretta Swit, the Emmy Award-winning actress who played no-nonsense U.S. Army combat nurse Major Margaret "Hot Lips" Houlihan in the hit TV series "M*A*S*H" for more than a decade, died on Friday at the age of 87. Swit, a mainstay of one of the most successful and acclaimed series in US television history, died at her home in New York City from what was suspected to be natural causes, her publicist, Harlan Boll, said. Swit earned two best supporting actress Emmys and 10 nominations for her role as Hot Lips, the lusty, tough but vulnerable, patriotic Army career nurse in the series that ran from 1972-1983. As the only regular female character in the ground-breaking show set in the fictional 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital during the Korean War of the 1950s, Hot Lips endured the insults, pranks and practical jokes of the fun-loving male surgeons. The show's cast also included Alan Alda, Wayne Rogers, McLean Stevenson, Larry Linville, Mike Farrell, Harry Morgan, Gary Burghoff, David Ogden Stiers and Jamie Farr. Swit defined her role by playing a strong, determined, independent woman, who had input into the development and storyline of her character, including her split from her married lover Major Frank Burns, hilariously played by Linville, and her own wedding and divorce. She appeared in nearly all of the more than 250 episodes and the series finale, which was the most watched episode of any TV series in history when the show ended in 1983. The TV series was based on the real-life experiences of an Army surgeon, who penned the 1968 book MASH: A Novel About Three Army Doctors, and on director Robert Altman's 1970 black comedy film of the same name. "While we were shooting, even from the very beginning, we were aware of how very special it was," Swit said about the series in a 2017 interview with Fox News. "The symbiosis, the camaraderie, the love and respect we had for each other."
