SoulBoy was screened at Prestige Plaza and in Kibera during mid-March. It follows the efforts of one Abila (Samson Odhiambo) in his quest to bring his father's soul back.I say 'efforts' and not 'feats' because Abila didn't appear to struggle much with each task that he encountered in much the same way The Signs were so blatantly apparent and consequential.
The filming is well executed. Odhiambo doesn't vary his expression much from frowning. But his and Opou's characters are likeable.
There is good social commentary
