- In the Sudan, in 1884 to 1885, Egyptian forces led by British General Charles "Chinese" Gordon (Charlton Heston) defend Khartoum against an invading Muslim Army led by a religious fanatic, Mohammed Ahmed el Mahdi (Sir Laurence Olivier).
- A group of exceptional young ladies in Khartoum are determined to play football professionally. They are prepared to defy the ban imposed by Sudan's Islamic Military government and they will not take no for an answer. Their battle to get officially recognized as Sudan's National Woman's team is fearless, courageous and often laughable. But their struggle is unwavering. Through the intimate portrait of these women over a number of years we follow their moments of hope and deception. Despite the National Football Federation getting FIFA funds earmarked for the women's teams, this team continues to be marginalized. However, there is a new spark of hope when the elections within the federation could mean real change of the entire system.
- Gubara was proud of the first color film in African cinema, which attempts to give an African response to the city symphony genre by capturing disparate images of daily life in Khartoum and setting it to music, particularly romantic Arabic songs.
- Although perhaps without foresight, Gubara seemingly set out to capture a historic picture of a city that today has completely vanished. He reveals to us the livelier place that Khartoum was before fateful circumstances turned it into a tough, surviving shell of its former self.
- Life as an artist isn't easy in Sudans buzzing capital Khartoum, especially for women. Inside the safe boundaries of an intercultural exchange program between Sudanese and German artists, the participants cautiously start to develop concepts to overcome the archaic norms of society. A film about the power of creative expression that ultimately aims to serve as a peaceful catalyst for emancipation, equality and social change.

- This enchanting series affords numberless contrasts of the past and the present, the old and the new, in juxtaposition: undisciplined Arab soldiery and trained native cavalry escorting the Khedive in Oriental state; the camel and the motor car; primitive methods of irrigation and the great Assouan barrage; modern Cairo with ancient Thebes; the paddle-wheel steamer and the dahabeah; the Mohammedan Sacred Carpet and its smart uniformed and drilled police guard. Quaint dances by Nubian women and children at Berber; wild, fantastic parades and dances of Bisharin Arabs, a fierce charge of Arabs at Wady Halfa, the excavations at Carnack, where companies carry earth in baskets balanced on their heads, singing and clapping their hands the while time with childlike glee, afford wonderful glimpses of the manners and customs of these barbarous tribes. Grandeur is supplied by the sculptured effigies and ruins of thousands of years ago, at Luxor, Abu Simbel, Carnack and Philae; by picturesque rush and swiftness of the waters at the Assouan Dam, and the varied scenery of the River Nile. The Arab market scenes at Cairo are felicitously novel to Western eyes, and woman and children of all shades of black and brown chatter and gesticulate, squat walk or stand, as they buy or sell. Camels, burden bearing and racing, mules, donkeys, barber conducting their business in the open, earthenware and onion vendors, veiled and unveiled women, rough and unkempt men, burnoused and turbaned, all make up a sum of wonderful Oriental variety and animation that will live for years in the memory.
- The story of General Charles "Chinese" Gordon, a brilliant but eccentric military commander, and his death defending Khartoum in 1885.
- Mozenrath has found, after seven years, the magical book of Khartoum, which promises to get him the secret for ultimate cosmic power of that great magician, who was captivated it in ages ago. Mozenrath manages to activate it, and it shows him how to make a philosophers stone, the key to power. The missing ingredient is enough magic to heat the magical oven. Thereto Mozenrath cleverly captures Genie, masquerading as a coachman. Aladdin, Iago and Abu on Carpet and Genie's girlfriend, a green genie, come to his rescue, but are expected, worse: the green genie is wanted to supplement Genie's insufficient power...
- 200750mTV-MA7.8 (103)TV EpisodePassing by Khartoum, the boys have been riding for a while and see the aftermath of a car crash and pull over to the roadside. One of the drivers explains he fell asleep at the wheel and crashed his truck into another vehicle. Police arrive and are more interested in the bikes than the accident scene. The head of police takes a fancy to Ewan's bike and decides to take it for a test ride much to Ewan's horror. As the boys head towards the Ethiopian border they get very excited when they see monkeys in the wild for the first time. Reaching the border into Ethiopia, the team is stopped at customs and made to camp over night in the compound so a thorough inspection can be carried out on all vehicles. Overnight an enormous thunderstorm hits and the team has to get to sleep with the sound of rain plummeting against their tents. Eventually making it to the UNICEF project in Ethiopia, Ewan and Charley see the remarkable work done at the landmine awareness project. Ewan picks himself back up after a number of falls. Making it to Addis Ababa for their well earned break, the boys are looking forward to recuperating with a couple of days off. With the mood reaching an all time low the boys do some soul searching and decide this trip of a lifetime is well worth continuing. They head towards Shashemene to meet the Rastafarian's of Ethiopia.
- In Libya, the boys visit Tobruk War Cemetery; Ewan is touched by the amount of people buried there from all over the world. It is an emotional day for the boys as they realize how much they miss their families back home. Arriving safely in Egypt the team are reunited again when David and Jimmy meet them at the border. Riding through Egypt there is still doubt as to whether they will make it to Aswan in time for the ferry. They are starting to feel the strain of the long days on the bikes, if they don't make it in time they will have to wait for a week before they can continue with the trip. This will delay them hugely and put pressure on their relationships. Ewan and Charley visit the pyramids in Cairo and are extremely lucky to have a private guided tour. They are fascinated with the architecture and amazed at their structure. The boys take a detour from their trip and fly down to Kenya to visit the charity called Riders for Health. Safely on the ferry they cross the border into Sudan and into the sweltering heat. Road conditions are poor and the bikes are put to the test, resulting in Ewan's shock absorber collapsing. After repairing Ewan's bike they are back on the rocky road but are soon brought to a grinding halt as Claudio the cameraman's shock absorber also gives in, leaving Charley and Ewan to venture alone, while Claudio's bike is taken to Khartoum to be repaired.
