When it comes to timely releases, Makosa Ni Yangu nails it. This film has just been released when gender-based violence is dominating Kenyan headlines. More than entertainment, it seeks to spotlight a social problem currently facing the country.
The story follows Nafisa, a young woman caught between two worlds: one of humble beginnings and thanks to Saint, another of fame, wealth, and violence. While the film delivers a strong message, it struggles to fully balance this with an engaging narrative.
