HO50s: Cinema Club for the 50s, Rafiki, 3 May, Bernie Grant Arts Centre
The next film at the Haringey Over 50's Forum's Cinema Club is Rafiki.
Synopsis:
Bursting with the colourful street style & music of Nairobi’s vibrant youth culture, Rafiki is a tender love story between two young women in a country that still criminalises homosexuality. Kena and Ziki have long been told that “good Kenyan girls become good Kenyan wives” - but they yearn for something more. Despite the political rivalry between their families, the girls encourage each other to pursue their dreams in a conservative society. When love blossoms between them, Kena and Ziki must choose between happiness and safety…The film was banned in Kenya.
Venue: Bernie Grant Arts Centre, Town Hall Approach Rd, London N15 4RX
