Nairobi Half Life Finally Makes It To American Theatres!

Last week I gave you the low down on the romance brewing at Phoenix Theatres, did you catch that?

If you didn’t, read that here. Now, Phoenix was a huge part of Nairobi Half Life, and finally imevuka border border! Jaguar dance anyone? I stumbled upon this update on Densu Moseti’s wall and and I started doing backflips in my head! “NAIROBI HALF LIFE will be getting a theatrical release in 46 cinemas in the USA on Thursday March 21st 2013….” My birthday has gotta be a special day I tell you, and no I’m not tryna solicitate for cake.

It continued to say “On March 21st 2013 NAIROBI HALF LIFE will screen in cinemas across the USA for one night only. Audiences at each venue will be asked to vote on whether the film should receive one week’s theatrical release at each participating cinema. If the majority vote ‘yes,’ then that film will return to that cinema for a week’s theatrical release. This is the first time, that a Kenyan film is getting this kind of exposure in the USA. We need your help to support this event, we need numbers! Spread the word…tell your mother, tell your lover! Lets get all the participating the cinemas packed and most importantly vote YES! to give thousands more the opportunity to see this amazing film.”

So there you have it, please call all your peoplez and ask them to phone their kith and kin. These guys have done a lot in putting Kenya on the global map, do your bit and ensure that NHL permeates the American film scene. This; this could be the the first of many more Kenyan films to show in Obama-land. Go ahead, call away!! Nairobi Half Life may have missed out on the Oscars, but that has in no way stopped the accolades from pouring in. Lets ensure that NHL maintains this amazing trajectory.
