When Dreams Learn to Breathe
In the heart of Kenya's slums, where youth face the harsh realities of abuse, parental loss, and substance struggles, hope emerges through the power of meditation and breathwork. This documentary follows the transformative journeys of resilient young individuals who rise above their past hardships, finding inner strength and new beginnings. Witness how these practices empower them to heal, reclaim joy, and inspire change in their communities.
This is the first project made by Russian, India and Kenya together.
