As we premiered
@freemoneyfilm at
@tiff_net 🔥🔥🔥, a dope story about cash! I am filled with incredible gratitude. Massive thank you to the people of Kogutu in Kisumu and GiveDirectly, allowing us to be present. To
@larrymadowo for trusting us even as we were figuring it out. To our comrades at
@lbxafrica and
@insigniafilms pushing to work to make this happen, kwanza in COVID 🥶.
Our first-class team is led by tireless producer Amanda Pollak 💪🏾
