Unresolved historical injustices and climate change raise the stakes in a generations-old conflict between the indigenous nomadic Samburu people and white landowners in Laikipia, Kenya, a wildlife conservation haven. Beautifully shot over several years, in one of Africa’s most famous conservation areas, this is a timely documentary that offers no easy answers.
