The Student Film category features short dramas and documentaries produced by students in FilmAid's year-long, Media Entrepreneurship Training courses in Kakuma and Dadaab Refugee Camps. The short films were produced by diverse teams of young refugees from South Sudan, Somalia, Ethiopia, Congo, Sudan, Uganda and northwest Kenya. Many of the young filmmakers have spent most of their lives in the refugee camps. The Festival is thrilled to be able to provide these talented youth with a platform to have their voices heard.
Judea wasn’t looking for an easy way out. Strong shouldered and stronger willed, she supported her sick grandmother by working the family kiosk, all while keeping her mind firmly focused on her education. She wasn’t going to be distracted from her goals by fantasies. Or so she thought until that fantasy showed up with a nice shirt and an even nicer smile. Will she choose to make her own happiness, or will she end up on the path of the beautiful and the damned?
