Street Dreams: Dancing To Survive
A group of street dancers in Nairobi struggle against the odds to become celebrities.
A seven-strong group of homeless street dancers in Nairobi, who call themselves the Street Family Dance Crew are determined to overcome the desperate hardships of street life and make their names as celebrity dancers.
Film-maker Nick Wambugu follows them for two years on their quest to find fame and fortune.
Their journey is fraught with obstacles as they endure hunger and destitution, bust-ups with police, family troubles, and the crisis of the Covid-19 pandemic. This is a film about hope and ingenuity, resilience and courage, as the boys find ways to survive and keep dancing - hoping, against all the odds, that they will break through and hit the big time.
