Yusuf is a young university graduate suffering discrimination, lack of opportunity and is raging against injustice. He slowly becomes seduced by extremist thought, which leaves his family powerless to dissuade him. His Uncle Salim, the only father figure in his life, is helpless in the face of his nephew's ideology. When Salim discovers his new next-door neighbors is actually his long lost childhood friend, Jack, he is delighted. But Jack has become a policeman, a job which in a City increasingly divided by religion and tribe and simmering with violence, places a seemingly unbridgeable gulf between them. Yusuf, Jack and Salim's lives become fatally and irrevocably entwined as Salim struggles to hold his friendship, family and community together. But Yusuf's sister has another plan. Knowing that the communities of Mombasa may have the solution, she takes her story to the streets
Yusuf e Salim, amici di vecchia data, si rincontrano a Mombasa dove il primo è venuto a lavorare come poliziotto. Un nipote di Salim, che per rabbia si affilia ad una comunità radicale islamica, e antiche rivalità tribali, li vedranno in difficoltà, su opposte sponde, affrontare morti e violenza. Realizzato dalla Safe, una compagnia specializzata nel rappresentare questi conflitti, vedrà questi temi messi in scena nella seconda parte del film e discussi davanti all'autentica comunità keniota che ne è protagonista (http://www.mymovies.it/film/2015/watatu/)
