| My Kenyan Story by Ingrid Berlanga |
Ingrid Berlanga the outgoing political, commercial and
cultural attaché to Kenya screened a documentary titled My Kenyan Story by
Ingrid Berlanga at phoenix players. This is a documentary that was made by Immortal
Media.
The documentary starts with recollections of Ingrid in her
first posting at the UN headquarters in New York and how she did not achieve
personal fulfilment though she was in what would be considered every diplomats
dream location.
She was subsequently posted to Kenya in 2009 or thereabout
and met folks from immortal media who convinced her into making a documentary.
Subsequently they followed her around as she settled around in the country and
worked. As a commercial, political and cultural attaché Ingrid engaged with many
people but key among this are the Mexican population living in Kenya. Most of
the Mexicans in Kenya are working in the religious field so the documentary at
some point takes a religious angle. Hence for an atheist this documentary might
not be recommended.
Despite the almost religious angle the documentary does show
the work of a diplomat living in Kenya. It might not be all rosy and the work
involves a sensible amount of creativity.
My Kenyan Story by Ingrid Berlanga is available on DVD
which can be sourced from immortal media.
