Katatura

Hello!

On Rebecca’s last day in Namibia when she was at the airport, she bought a movie called “Katatura”. It is based on the slums of Windhoek, a large part of the population lives here, but due to the great economic imbalance, the wealth of the city does not spread so far. This area has problems with alcohol, violence, and gangs. When we were in Windhoek, we were by a taxi through Katutura but were not allowed to get out of the car. Lorely and I had read about it in a book in the spring. In the film, Kataura is portrayed as poorly built homes and focuses on the life of a few families.  A gang leader takes control, and individuals attempting to survive the violence,  consequences of stolen diamonds, and love. I highly recommend this movie to all individuals, and you can find it on Youtube!

Best wishes,

Kimberly
