The Progress: An update on the Ariang School Building Project
In January 2009, Gabriel Bol Deng and Samuel Garang returned to South Sudan to begin the first phase of the school construction in the village of Ariang. They were accompanied by the film maker Jen Marlowe and Andrew Quattrociocchi as a follow up by the film crew on the soon-to-be released documentary film, Rebuilding Hope, which will premiere this fall 2009. Gabriel, Jen and Andrew came back to the United States in February 2009 while Garang remained in South Sudan to oversee the well drilling and brick making processes.
