Silas

Anjali Nayar - Kenya

Synopsis

Focusing on one country, Silas is a global tale that warns of the power of politics and celebrates that of individuals to fight back. One man’s battle gains momentum and emboldens communities to use fists and smartphones, seize control of their lands and protect their environment. This is a new generation of resistance.
