Gatero also doubled up as the director and the producer of the film. This was the first movie she produced by herself although she had in the past been involved in other projects.
Does she think Kenyan film has the potential to grow?
"The future of film is very bright The audience has become more interested in better storylines. In the past 5 years, the production has gotten better.
Being featured on Netflix was a big win for us and the industry. It was evidence that you can create a film from scratch, fund it and sell it at a profit."
Her advice to future creatives?
"They also need to hone their craft. Let them utilize the internet to practice. They should also work on ethics because the industry is about hard work. They should also be passionate."
Gatero and her team plan to create more films that will take Kenya internationally. Other Kenyan films on Netflix include Sincerely Daisy, Forty Sticks, Poacher, Plan B, and Disconnect.
