Summary:
This film gives a brief overview of the Dorobo as a people and where the different clans settled. It then focusses on the Athi-Dorobo who were asimilated by the Kikuyu people. The film also looks at the current generation of Athi-Dorobo, some who recently found out about their ancestry, and what they feel about their identity.
