Kikuyu Land

One man’s fight for stolen land exposes Kenya’s unfinished colonial past.

Set in Kenya’s tea highlands, Mr Mungai seeks justice for land taken from his family. His claim uncovers a deeper history of dispossession, bringing him into conflict with a multinational corporation still operating on contested ground. As the case gains momentum, it draws in Bea, a local news producer whose investigation reveals buried histories and long-silenced truths. Alongside them is Stephen, the son of a tea worker, growing up within the plantations at the centre of the dispute. Moving between legal battle and lived experience, the film traces a community’s struggle to reclaim what was lost and confront a past that remains unresolved.
