The Modern Warrior

Description

Nairobi is home to a massive influx of immigrants, exiles and dreamers. This metropolis of skyscrapers and slums is the backdrop for an absorbing tale of two clashing worlds. Perhaps no one understands the fragile intersection between traditional and modern life better than Moses ole Samante. An ambitious young Maasai, he runs a successful safari business from Nairobi but works hard to maintain his village ties. The other focus of this episode is photojournalist Boniface Mwangi, who uses his camera to unify Kenya's social divisions.
