About this Event

UK award-winning film exhibition company and Kenya-based have collaborated to bring you. An innovative, month-long hybrid event taking place July 2022 in Kenya, the UK and online, designed to bring together films from both regions via film screenings, conversations and exhibitions.

We Are Parable and Manyatta Screenings, along with filmmaker Wanjeri Gakuru, have collaboratively curated a series of short films that establish a conversation between Britain, Kenya and the wider East African region.

On 1, 2 & 3 July, we will be at Unseen Nairobi, for the first of our in-person screenings of the programme and an accompanying exhibition showcasing key elements from each film, from shot lists and scripts to props and storyboards, creating a unique experience for audiences.

  • Appreciation (Tomisin Adepeju, UK, 2018)
  • Bukikakkono (Facing North) (Tukei Peter Muhumuza, Uganda, 2018)
