BETWEEN THE RAINS

Moses Thuranira
2022 Kenya 86 min

Between the Rains is a coming-of-age story of Kolei, a shepherd boy whose  name translates to “living amongst the goats.” Unfolding over the course of a  prolonged drought, viewers are pressed deeper into Kolei’s inner conflict as he  questions not only his own identity as a warrior — a path that was chosen for  him —but also the erosion of the culture that has shaped every aspect of his  life. For Kolei, becoming a warrior not only shapes masculinity and personal  identity, but it is also the very foundation on which this community and society  root their lives. It is a sacred, guiding pillar.
