 “A beautiful little film about love, about humanity, about one of the many facets of what it means to be African”. – IndieWire

In September 2014, Chuchu released his first feature film, Stories of Our Lives, an anthology of five short films dramatizing true stories of life in Kenya which he directed as part of the NEST Collective, a Nairobi-based arts collective. Together they traveled around Kenya, recording audio interviews with the focus on homosexuality, ready to risk arrest as this form of relationship is prohibited in Kenya.
