When their father falls ill, three estranged half-siblings reunite. As the world around them crumbles, they argue with each other and with everyone around them in a desperate struggle to do the right thing and mend their rapidly deteriorating lives. THINNER THAN WATER is a blood-raw, wicked comedy-drama about fighting through the thick and thin of family. Beautifully written by Melissa Ross, she is a two-time winner of the Le Comte de Nouy Prize, and is a proud member of bot...h the Dorothy Strelsin New American Writers Group at Primary Stages and Labyrinth Theater Company. With neurotic yet sympathetic characters; vividly real and extremely funny, what makes THINNER THAN WATER so compelling is the unflagging accuracy of the many confrontations that make up its story.

Rafiki is a story of romance that grows between two young women, Kena and Ziki, amidst family and political pressures around LGBT rights in Kenya. The film had its international premiere in the Un Certain Regard section at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival, becoming the first Kenyan film to b...e screened at the festival. Rafiki was banned by the Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) "due to its homosexual theme and clear intent to promote lesbianism in Kenya contrary to the law". The KFCB warned that anyone found in possession of the film would be in breach of the law in Kenya, where gay sex is punishable by 14 years in jail. Wanuri Kahiu (Director), sued Kenya's government, to allow the film to be screened and become eligible to be submitted as Kenya's entry for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film at the 91st Academy Awards. After the ban was lifted, the film was shown to a sold-out crowd at a cinema in Nairobi, yet it was not selected as Kenya's submission in the Foreign Language Film category. RAFIKI is available at HULU! 100% Recommended #Rafiki #Kenya #WanuriKahiu #Hulu #LGBTQ #RepresentationMatter #JambukaTree #CannesFestival #SundaysAreForMovies #Movies #InternationalCinema #MovieRec #AMCPNY #ActingGym #ActingSchool
