Kena (Samantha Mugatsia) is the daughter of a Nairobi shopkeeper, helping her dad run the store while she prepares for nursing school. Ziki (Sheila Munyiva), on the other hand, mostly just hangs out with her friends and makes up dances. Their attraction is instantaneous, but they only meet because their fathers are running against each other for county assembly. Their love story, in a place where it’s illegal, threatens to complicate their family’s lives as much as their own, but the film still maintains a wonderfully bright, colorful, and musical, atmosphere, leading to a happy ending—even if that ending takes some time.
