Breakfast in Kisumu
© Nyar K'Odero Ltd, All Rights Reserved, 2019
Synopsis
A homage to the 20-year journey of renowned professor and activist Rok Ajulu. Filmed across six countries, in multiple formats, it follows Rok’s account of his struggles as an exiled freedom fighter of the post-colonial era.
In conversation with his daughter, he tells of his numerous deportations, prison sentences, and academic career. As Rok recounts the collapse of the apartheid regime, BREAKFAST IN KISUMU shows us a homecoming: his journey back to Africa for the transition of the African National Congress (ANC) from liberation movement to governing party, his marriage into the Sisulu Family, and the continental significance of 1994.
