Writer/director Wanuri Kahiu has made a twenty-minute science fiction film in Kenya about a future that takes place after great water wars have left the earth barren and lifeless. The short, called Pumzi, is playing at the Sundance Film Festival. It was produced by Inspired Minority Pictures. The film follows a woman who works for a museum in one of the great self-contained indoor cities of Africa. She finds a single germinating seed and escapes to the dead landscape outside where she wants to plant the seedling. The film looks beautiful. I can’t wait to see the whole thing.
