Pumzi is a short Sci-Fi film starring Kudzani Moswela as Asha (above) and was created by Kenyan Writer/Director Wanuri Kahui. The film is set in futuristic Africa, 35 years after World War III “The Water War”. Pumzi is currently a 20 minute short film (which screened at Sundance), but Kahiu plans to expand Pumzi to a feature length film.

Trailer: PUMZI

Official Synopsis:

Nature is extinct. The outside is dead. Asha lives and works as a museumcurator in one of the indoor communities set up by the Maitu Council. When she receives a box in the mail containing soil, she plants an old seed in it and the seed starts to germinate instantly. Asha appeals to the Council to grant her permission to investigate the possibility of life on the outside but the Council denies her exit visa. Asha breaks out of the inside community to go into the dead and derelict outside to plant the growing seedling and possibly find life on the outside.
