Reclaimed Voices is a powerful documentary produced by ASPYA Foundation in 2024.
The film follows the transformative journey of Sabir Banek, a young man with lived experience of the youth justice system. Sabir's story is one of profound change—finding employment, embracing his faith, and redefining his future. The documentary aims to inspire by showcasing real-life examples of loss, redemption and positive change. It challenges the often negative and one-dimensional media portrayal of the South Sudanese community. Reclaimed Voices is more than a film; it is a movement to reclaim narratives and highlight the strength and potential within our communities. By sharing powerful stories, it aims to foster understanding, break down stereotypes, and encourage dialogue that leads to lasting reform in justice and rehabilitation efforts. ASPYA Foundation is committed to engaging young people, organisations, community leaders and other key stakeholders in meaningful conversations that not only recognise the potential for personal transformation but ultimately drive sustainable initiatives to empower young people and families. Documentary run time: 68 minutes.
