SYNOPSIS:

Half a million refugees have fled insecurity in their home countries to try to build a new life in Kenya. Having left nearly everything behind, many struggle to restart without a big missing piece: money. This film follows three refugee families in Nairobi who received $1,000 each to spend on what they need most, no strings attached.
