My Turtle, Your Turtle (Mi Casa, Su Casa)

This tale follows the humble journey of McDonald. From a determined spearfisherman turned passionate ocean conservationist, McDonald’s story explores his dive into despair to his rise into awareness of our precious underwater ecosystem and how one person’s impact can change a community.

In the beautiful coastal town of Watamu in Kenya, AFRISOS collaborated with PWFF, Kenya Wildlife Services, Bahari Hai, A Rocha Kenya, and Temple Point Resort to unite environmental enthusiasts of the local community. AFRISOS mentors guided mentees through a 6-day dynamic smartphone filmmaking lab. Through this program, mentees and mentors worked together to plot, capture, and edit this film, all in four days! At the end of the program, the film was locally screened so the community could be a part of this enlightening journey of grassroots storytelling

Mi Kasa, Su Kasa is a narrative of hope. Hope in humanity’s ability to change, hope for the future of our oceans, and hope that no matter what equipment you already own, you can create artistic visual narratives with the simplest of tools
