Simiyu Samurai

This Kenyan movie is about Boniface Simiyu who goes to Samurai school in Japan and then has to return after that country suffers one of its many tsunamis.

On his arrival in Kenya Simiyu is received by the warm love of his Grandmother Naomi and his little cousin. However, there is trouble, he gets into an altercation with goons who run a protection racket in his home village where his grandmother is a trader. After an almighty fight he is given a choice by the goons; surrender or his grandma and his new love (Zinzy) interest get machetted.

In an interesting turn of events, the movie ends as the audience is asked to vote by SMS on how the movie should proceed. The series can be followed (and watched for free) on the show website www.simiyusamurai.com. The hope is that the show can engage the audience and earn revenues by employing this method.

What are you waiting for? Go watch the movie: Simiyu Samurai.

    An intriguing story. Nicely written although there are many Asian cross cultural issues. A very nice first effort though! Keep them coming.

  2. Okay the movie is great and i liked it as for the voting part i think he should trust his instincts and do wat he was taught best to do. next time i thnk we should add more of charisma n lots of uniq stunts and skills unlike the basic karate chop kicks and flyng kicks
