About the Film

While countless films depict Maasai livestock herders of East Africa as being in a race against time to preserve their iconic pastoralist lifestyle, Maasai Remix highlights members of the community championing cultural innovation in divergent settings. The documentary deftly interweaves the stories of Adam, Evalyne and Frank - three individuals who simultaneously pursue self-determination through varied strategies, introduce radical change to the status quo, and demonstrate tangible passion for their culture and way of life.
