With Grace

Julia Dahr, Natalya Sarch / Norway, Kenya / 2024 / 29 min

Thirteen-year-old Grace lives with her eight siblings on a small farm in Kenya. They live off the land, but as the drought worsens, her father faces the painful choice of having to leave his family to find work in the city. The rain, once a blessing, becomes a destructive force, and a storm devastates their home. Yet, even in the darkest of times, Grace’s laughter and infectious positivity keep her family’s hope alive. A powerful story about resilience, the healing power of humour, and a girl who won’t stop fighting for her dreams.
