Harambee: The Weight of Division is a 2025 short documentary that revisits Kenya's 2007-2008 post-election crisis, a violent chapter triggered by disputed presidential results. Over 1,100 lives were lost, and more than 600,000 people were displaced in the chaos that followed. Through a carefully curated blend of archival footage and observational storytelling, the film avoids sensationalism and blame. Instead, it shines a sober light on the emotional toll of political unrest, how fractured trust, grief, and fear ripple through generations and communities. By focusing on the human stories behind the headlines, Harambee becomes more than a historical recount it's a reflective, urgent reminder of what is at stake when national unity is compromised. The film concludes not with answers, but with a call to confront painful truths, to heal, and to recommit to the ideals of democracy, peace, and patriotism.
