Mos Kode – A Film in Dholuo

(With English subtittles)

Mos kode reflects on our skeleton cabinets- things that we practice in the dark and hope that they shall never see the ambiance of the sun. It mirrors on the current obsession of many to put money and material things before all.

This project is a collaborative effort between The Theatre Production and 3dAfrika Media to produce Kenyan movies telling the Kenyan/African story.

This is the first in a series of Kenyan movies to be produced as a collaborative effort between these 2 companies in various Kenyan dialects, English, Swahili and Slang. We intend to produce at least one movie per month with Mos Kode as the pilot project.

Mos kode is keen on bringing back the East African audience from Nollywood and any other wood to its nearest wood that offers a reflection of his or her way of life. Ancestral skeletons, the supernatural, love, jealousy, triumph, pride, culture etc.
