Kenya Post Election Documentary: Maina Kiai Coming to Stockholm
12th November Film and discussion:
“Getting Justice: Kenya’s Deadly Game of Wait and See”
Maina Kiai: To Discuss Documentary
In the beginning of 2008 a wave of violence spread across Kenya. The election results from December 27, 2007, were questioned and lead to riots. More than 1 000 persons were killed and nearly half a million were banished from their homes.
“Getting Justice: Kenya’s Deadly Game of Wait and See” is a documentary about the search for accountability and reconciliation in Kenya. The film gives voice to survivors; it looks at what they desire and discusses some of the issues that they would like to see. It also looks at Rwanda as a contemporary example of how another country has dealt with issues of justice and reconciliation after their major crisis in 1994.
After the screening, we will have a discussion with the human rights defender, Maina Kiai, who uses film as a tool to pursue social justice issues. Maina Kiai is first Chairperson of the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights.
