Based on actual events, Togetherness Supreme is the story of Kamau, an artist, searching for change in the midst of tribal tension in the slums.
Kamau and Otieno fight for political change for those living in extreme poverty, but they are caught up in the middle of the ethnic conflict that tears apart their country and, furthermore, they are rivals for the love of Alice, a preacher's daughter.
Togetherness Supreme was made in the aftermath of the 2007–2008 political, economic, and humanitarian crisis that break out after President Mwai Kibaki was re-elected in December 2007.
This film dramatizes the post-election violence in Kibera, where police fired on demonstrators and rival groups fighting in the streets.
During the production of the film, the actors helped translate the script, which was written in English, to make their lines into their own tribal dialects.
