 Lady of the moment, the lady of everything, she's just up there right now, this is Cloud9, Jennifer Gatero, the producer. Hi, beautiful. Why? How are you doing? How is everything? I am good, first of all. You look really stunning. Thank you. I thank you, Sana. I am getting out of the black, mimee. Black and white, to close out, close out. Hello, K. Hello. Anyway, beautiful. Thank you so much. First of all, I'd love to know, what made you choose Nairobi as the name of the film? What story are you trying to tell? Okay, so the movie was originally called Nairobi, but it brought a little bit of issues, so I decided, because I don't want anything to be issues with this movie, I decided to change the name to Nairobi. And so the reason why I am being the name Nairobi is because I think it just encompasses what this movie is about. It's about Nairobi as a hasla, it's a hasla city, it's a hasla nation, everyone is trying to get by, everyone is trying to make a living for themselves. So it's just Nairobi. And when you watch the movie, I think you'll understand. Okay, and you know there's Nairobi and there was Nairobi Half Life. Is there anything that's similar to those two? No, I mean I don't think they're similar at all. Like in terms of the storyline, it's quite different actually. It's quite different, yeah. So I'd love to ask you, the cast are very, I'd call them new faces. I don't know about the experience at all, but new faces, why not the oldies? Why new faces? You know, I'm a director who likes to give people a chance, people who've never been on TV, so whenever I do casting, I always try to do open casting calls so that I can find people who have never been exposed, have never acted, and the people that I have now almost actually pretty much all of them are new faces and they are amazing. Like they carried my story, they had my script, they carried my story and they did such a good job. And I think with this way that I prove to people that you don't have to keep, you can also try new talent because there's a lot of talent in Kenya, so much talent in Kenya. So sometimes people should go out there and look for that talent because it's there in plenty, in plenty. So I'd love to know, what was the biggest risk you have taken as the producer for Nairobi? Even when it comes to the production, the whole thing, the whole movie was a risk. The whole movie was a risk because when I decided to do this movie, I didn't have the budget for it. Actually, I didn't have any money at all. I had to put up a post on Facebook and I was like, yo, does someone want to help me finance a movie? Because that's how I got my first finance, actually through Facebook. So yes, through a Facebook post. Yeah, so it's basically the whole thing was a risk because I had no idea that we would get here. Because now walking into this place, I'm like, are you kidding me? I know, the place is packed and guys are here and it all started with a vision that I didn't even know how I was going to carry it out. So we got my first post and now we're here. And it's so exciting for me. And this is my first film. So, wow, congratulations. First film and the tell-up is amazing. There are so many guest stars. And guys, you know, love your work and just like, wow. Actually, I'm so, I'm actually, I'm humbled to be in front of you because you're one in a million. It's not all the time that our first film just does this good. Because it's doing this good and we have not even yet seen the premiere, you know, we haven't seen the movie itself. So I'd love to ask you, what's the need? What's the need? See, come on, what's the need? Artists, beat musicians, artists, they complain so much about, you know, their pay. And when it comes to their work and, you know, comparing their work and their pay, at times they complain. For Nairobi, how was that? So for Nairobi, everyone in this movie is a co-owner of the movie. So what that means is everyone has a percentage. And so, well, if the movie does well, oh, sorry. Okay, so now how it is in Nairobi is that everyone here, even that you see is the cast and crew, are co-owners of this movie. They all have percentages. I paid people with percentages, which means that the pay depends on how the movie does because we all own it together. So the movie does well. It does well. If the movie doesn't do well, then it doesn't do well. But because everyone is an owner of this movie, then it means that we're all in this together. We win together. So that's what it is. And also, we have, you know, our Kenyan stars. Actually, actors don't really have that much recognition in Kenya. But in Tanzania, there's so much recognition that comes to actors. What do you feel like our industry, our audience should change? I think the audience are getting better because, you know, before, we didn't have so much of an audience that we're consuming so much of local content. But our audience is getting better and better as time goes by. And it's as such producers as well to give them content that's good enough for them to watch. Because Kenyan audience are very discerning audience and they want the best quality. Yeah, they're used to watching a kind of Game of Thrones and whatever. So we may never get to that level or we may take us all together at that level. But if we deliver to them something that's good, the good storyline and everything, then the audience as well will start to reciprocate with love. So for a young producer, for a young artist out there, you as a producer know challenges that you've gone through. You know how hard it is, you know the risks you have to take? Kind of give them a word of advice. Okay, so young producers out there, the first thing I want to say is just produce, produce. You have your phone, you have YouTube. Right now the world is open, the world isn't the way that it used to be. This girl for insecure started by doing a website with her phone and then got a deal with HBO. She didn't say to herself, oh, I only have a phone. Therefore I can't do something. So just do it. Just start with what you have and don't start telling yourself, I don't have this or I don't have that. Just start with what you have. If your phone is what you have, go ahead with it. Thank you so much, beautiful. This is an amazing premiere. Everything else looks so nice. The arrangements, just everything in general is amazing. I'm so sure the movie is going to be a total success. Because you know, there is so much that is riding on it. And thank you so much for your time. Again, you look amazing. I can't wait to watch the movie.
