Finding healing with a movie about Sudan’s Lost Boys

Clip: 10/10/2014 | 6m 18s

The 22-year civil war in Sudan left 2 million dead and double that number displaced. Young boys who were orphaned by the conflict became known as the “Lost Boys of Sudan.” A new film, “The Good Lie,” offers a fictional take on four such men who move to the U.S. Jeffrey Brown talks to actor and former "Lost Boy" Ger Duany and screenwriter Margaret Nagle about their efforts to tell this story.
