Nakuru Song (Part 1 of 2)

Told from the perspectives of local residents, Nakuru Song provides a first-person look at a country where hope is struggling to survive against monumental complacency. While Ken coaches a football team to keep boys off the street and James works tirelessly at the Melon Orphanage, countless other Kenyans live on: legions of children sniff glue to avoid hunger, other collect scrap metals for their income, and middle-aged men mix formaldehyde and jet fuel to create the "illicit brew" Directed by: Dan Montgomery & Kaz Radwanski Cinematography: Daniel Voshart Editor: Ben Edelberg Associate Producers: James Kagema & Ken Reithe Produced by: Dan Montgomery, Daniel Voshart & Kaz Radwanski
