Movie: Nawi: Dear Future Me - iAfrica

  • Date: 11 October
  • Time: 15:15

In northern Kenya’s Turkana region, 13-year-old Nawi excels at school but faces being married off for a dowry of livestock. When her father arranges a wedding to an older man, she decides to escape on the eve of the ceremony. What follows is a courageous fight for self-determination and education, and a challenge to the tradition of child marriage. With breathtaking landscapes and a remarkable performance by Michelle Lemuya Ikeny, the film delivers both urgency and hope
