<h4>About 'Otis Janam' </h4>

'Otis Janam' is not just another film in Kenya's burgeoning film industry. While it may not be the first indigenous language film scripted and produced by Kenyan filmmakers, it stands out for its compelling storytelling and production quality.

The film is a testament to Dr Zippy Okoth's talent as a writer and producer. The film weaves together a rich tapestry of social and cultural issues, all framed by a heartwarming love story.

Nick Kwach plays the titular character, a lazy fisherman whose life takes a dramatic turn when he wins a boat-racing championship.

This victory not only earns him respect but also the heart of Api, played by Sarah Masese, the daughter of the wealthiest man in the village.

As their romance blossoms, Janam faces numerous challenges that could change his life forever. The narrative explores themes of polygamy, alcoholism, sexism, and domestic violence.
