The Battle for Laikipia
A Storyville documentary, shot over several years in one of Africa’s most famous conservation areas, that charts mounting tensions between the Samburu people and fourth-generation European settlers.
Shot over several years, the Battle for Laikipia charts the relationship between the Samburu people, a nomadic pastoralist community that has always grazed cattle and goats on the land, and the third and fourth-generation European settlers who own ranches and conservancies in the region.
Filmed at a time of severe drought in one of Africa’s most famous conservation areas, pressure mounts on both sides, and unresolved historical tensions result in conflict.
