In Kenya’s lush tea-growing highlands, generations of families continue to live with the consequences of land stolen during British colonial rule. When journalist Bea Wangondu returns to her ancestral homeland, she uncovers a decades-long struggle for justice involving powerful multinational corporations, contested land, and deeply buried family secrets. Moving between investigative journalism and intimate personal discovery, Kikuyu Land is a visually stunning documentary about identity, resistance, and the enduring fight to reclaim what history has taken away.

“Films Worth Freezing For”

AIFF’s mission is to develop, promote and sustain a film festival that supports new media and independent film making in Alaska and around the world while enriching cultural and entertainment opportunities for Alaskans. Our nonprofit organization continues to play a part in expanding film screening and production opportunities throughout the state.

By bringing filmmakers from all parts of the country and world to Alaska, we want artists to connect with people they might not otherwise meet, and engage audiences in workshops, screenings, and plenty of celebratory parties.
