Thank You For The Rain
"The filmmakers let us witness from close up how a poor and vulnerable Kenyan family of farmers are struggling with droughts and floods. For them, climate change is already a battle of life or death. Thank You For The Rain should be a wakeup call for us all"
Jan Egeland, Secretary General Norwegian Refugee Council, former Co-Chair of the UN High Level Panel for Global Climate Services

The film
For five years, Kisilu, a Kenyan farmer, used his camera to capture the life of his family, his village and the damages of climate change. When a violent storm throws him and a Norwegian filmmaker together we see him transform from a father, to community leader to an activist on the global stage.

The impact
Thank You for the Rain put Kisilu’s story on the global stage and inspired new climate friendly policies and projects in Kenya including 30 new tree planting groups and planning for irrigation model farming
