What's left behind the scenes

  • Filming took place in Atlanta and South Africa.
  • "The Lost Boys of Sudan" is the name used by humanitarian mission staff in refugee camps. Over 20,000 children of the Nuer and Dinka ethnicities were orphaned and became refugees during the Second Sudanese Civil War. Their fates formed the basis of the film's plot.
  • Emanuel Jal, who played Paul in the film, describes his own life experience as a child soldier and all the atrocities committed during the Second Sudanese Civil War in the documentary "War Child: Emmanuel Jal" (2008). Today, Emanuel Jal is a popular hip-hop artist and a children's rights advocate working in conflict zones.
  • Ger Duany, who played Jeremiah in the film, was himself a child soldier and a Sudanese refugee who was granted asylum in the United States.
  • The mother of actress Kut Vil, who starred in the film Abital, is from Sudan, and her father is from Ethiopia. During the war, her parents managed to escape to Ethiopia. Her father died in 1993, and Kith Wool immigrated to the USA in 1998.
  • In the episode where refugees fly to the USA, an aircraft with a livery that began to be used in 2008, after the merger of two airlines – “Upward and Onward” and “Northwest Airlines” – is shown, while the film's events take place in 2001.
  • After Jeremiah quits his job at the supermarket and returns to the employment agency, the phone number in the window has a St. Louis area code, not Kansas City.
  • When the refugees arrive in Kansas City, they head to baggage claim, descending an escalator. At Kansas City Airport, all three baggage terminals are on the same level as the arrival hall.
  • Ger Duany, who played Jeremiah in the film, was himself a child soldier, a Sudanese refugee who was granted asylum in the United States.
