A 1980s Far Echo of African music noir.Pandpieri, Kisumu. 1970s. Otis Dundos is a shy and awkward kid. In the '80s as a man-boy he tries to fit in. But he is more an archetype than flesh-and-blood youth. Performing with Nico Opija and KDF in Kondele gives him a beginning and a journey into music.As guitar student hitting all the required notes, Otis is the haunted genius. And KDF in Kondele is a training ground for demonology. He is desperate to leave Kondele dingy clubs to reach for the future. He seems to realize he is not accomplished until he moves to Nairobi. But the cold, cold heart Nairobi's nefarious pop culture schools him into becoming a more spoiled artist. Return-ing to Kisumu with a new band, accompanied by queasy band-mates in the ranks of villainous neer-do-wells, he spirals down into the heart of Kisumu's darkness, encountering upsurging whirlpools of struggle, survival, greed, envy, revenge, and exploitation. How does he wind down the hysteria; somewhat, and make a fairly good case for an extraordinary achievement backmasking in heavy benga music? That's not the issue, the issue is that as famous as he is, Otis Dundos has more problems than a normal Kisumuan. Providing a catharsis through comedy, lancing the Kenyan lakeside city's moral boil with satire, KISUMU tells the story of or-dinary men and women trying to live the Kenyan African dream. Its is a story of humble beginning, awkward and misdirected fumbling and miraculous accomplishment.

Born in 1945 on the shores of Lake Victoria in Western Kenya, Shariffa was raised in a world of stark contrasts that could only be endured by accepting and embracing uncertainty, and in it finding her identity. Shariffa is married and has three children. She is an early childhood educator and an artist in different media. Her service orientation is manifested in many ways. She has been an active Girl Guide. Currently she is a Trustee of The Kenya Girl Guides Association. There are 350,000 Girl Guides in Kenya. She is an Honarary Associate of the World Association. As a Founder Member of the Hawkers Market Girls centre, in Naribi, she continues to impact women from the informal sectors of Nairobi. Her love for nature manifests itself in watching birds, stars and landscaping. Encouraging tree planting Speaking a mixture of Luo, a version of the Queen's English, Gujerati and, of course, the National language, Kiswahili, Shariffa became aware, at an early age, that the path to belonging is in recording oral history. Shariffa was born into this intrepid family who, in a single generation, had uprooted themselves from a deeply established way of life, into a new continent they didn't know the culture or language, yet managed to integrate into this new world, and built a life for themselves, deeply entwined with the people whose lives and culture they decided to coexist with. The climate around her birth was an era peace after a long war. The Second World War was finally over. Shariffa found her identity in the moving and changing history of her community, Kenyan Civil Society and her family within it. She was from a people who courageously moved across oceans and settled in East Africa. They adapted to the environment where they lived and always stood for service to the larger community in which they lived - no matter where. This value she carries with her and has embedded it in her own family. Spectacled and buried in books, Shariffa made her way through life and in her diaries, she carefully wove the story of her ancestors from India, to East Africa. She grasped the threads to make a fabric of long and dangerous voyages, ships and rail tracks and the dust left by carts of her ancestors, to allow her own children and grandchildren to understand who they are and where they come from. In this society, where history was not recorded, the spoken word transmits the memories. Through her book Bwana Mzuri, a tribute to her grandfather Hasham Jamal, Shariffa captures these memories for future generations so they may remember their history, and what makes them who they are today.

He is back to for some unfinished business in, the city that made. Kisumu.Guitarist Otis Dundos is back in Kisumu, the addictive and possessive lakeside town. Back in the '80s, he was the Urban Benga guitar legend. His commercially potent mix of hard benga and lofty rumba was loud with a culture surrounding it, and a cult-like following. It ignited an entire generation of music fans. It made him rich and famous.When he left Kisumu twenty years ago, it was a sudden unpleasant event. Everything ended in tragedy. He was twenty-nine years and at his peak. Today he still is the artsy man: the musician, the guitarist... People have died fast; the men and women who helped him make music... they have all died or wasted away. Is he about ready to follow suit? What is left?The past has unfulfilled dreams, good life, nice cars, easy money, expensive perfumes, glamourous women, living on the road and in the studio. And conniving band mates, thieving promoters and clever pirates.The present is bearable but holds no promise: he is forty-seven. If he has to accept his forced retirement, he has to learn to be a local Kisumuan, not the famous name. He reminisces about the romantic encounters of '70s. The future is uncertain. He is searching for sanity and happiness. Happiness? In Kisumu lives the woman whose unfulfilled love still dwells his heart. But his mind is too bamboozled to even think.
