Sesame Street in Swahili
Media
Sesame Street is a muppet show, but each episode also has a number of what they call "Live Action Films", short videos with real children. Now work is underway of adapting a south african version of Sesame Street to Swahili. This calls for original Swahili LAFs, and in october 2007 Maweni Farm carried out a training workshop for more or less inexperienced filmmakers. The result was these four LAFs.
