LEO MOVIE SCREENING
Kenya Museum Society cordially invites you, your family, friends and colleagues, to LEO MOVIE SCREENING.
Saturday 8 October 2016, 4pm
Louis Leakey Auditorium, Nairobi National Museum
Set in Nairobi, a Metropolitan city in Kenya that is a melting pot of East African culture, art, politics and commerce, LEO is a charming and beguiling story about a Maasai boy who thinks he’s a super-hero. It’s the story about the Power of Dream, Courage and Love, that captures the essence of a child’s heart still open to all the possibilities of achieving his dream in his homeland.
The film depicts an insightful, positive view of life in Kenya/Africa and also aims to break away from generalized stereotypical images and narratives that purportedly express Africa, its abilities, realities and people.
Leo has been screened in 11 global cities & 5 airlines
Audience Reviews:

- ‘’I could relate with the boy so much man…Especially when the father said.. ‘’Not yet’’ In the end, I would watch it again. Jeremy, Houston.
