Through the plight of one woman trying to save her daughter from starvation, “Rovina’s Choice” traces the effects of Donald Trump’s executive order banning US foreign aid - made within hours of being sworn into office in January 2025. Rovina Naboi’s devastating story represents the global impact of that decision on the world’s most vulnerable populations, and how it stopped decades of progress combating severe malnutrition.

It goes without saying that massive cuts in foreign aid will have equally massive consequences. The short documentary “Rovina's Choice” focuses on the recent cuts at USAID and the corresponding impact on refugees from South Sudan in Kenya. The issue is presented in a clear and concise manner, allowing those who are unfamiliar with the topic to learn a little bit about it. However, there is not enough time to provide a broader overview, such as the domino effect that other nations are also massively reducing their foreign aid. Nevertheless, “Rovina's Choice” is a useful introduction to the topic.
