CARRIED BY THE WIND
We are a film production collective working across documentary and commercial disciplines. Our documentaries take us to the far edges of continents, deserts, tropics and mountains to tell stories of cultures and places the world overlooks. Our commercial work takes that same depth and craft, building human worlds around the brands we partner with.

WE ARE KASKAZI

A collective built for the road less travelled. We go far — to the cultures, landscapes, and people most productions never reach — and we bring back stories worth the distance.

Born of profound culture and grounded in our roots, we carry a sense of belonging into every brand and every story we touch. Because we know what it means for something to belong somewhere.

Some of these stories we commission ourselves, the ones we believe need to be told, and we bring them to life with everything we have. When a brand works with us, they become part of that. Their work helps fund the stories we give back to the world, the cultures and causes worth standing for. And the documentary work sharpens us as artists, deepening everything we bring back to the brands we partner with.

Documentary
Culturally rooted stories
Expedition-driven documentary work rooted in the cultures, landscapes, and societies of Africa and beyond. Stories that exist far from the centre, giving voice to the people and places the world has not fully seen.

Commercial
Emotionally precise brand films
Brand films built around real human worlds. A product, a service, an idea, and the story living inside it. Every brief is an opportunity to go somewhere creatively unexpected.

Turkana: The Continuum of Time
/ DOCUMENTARY / BTS
Turkana: The Continuum of Time follows three characters in Turkana, northwestern Kenya, bound by a single struggle. Both are surviving a climate that is turning against them.
In the desert, an elder teaches his son to navigate an unforgiving land. By the lake, a fisherman battles rising waters that have displaced his community again and again, returning each day with resilience and faith. The film closes on a prayer for the land, the people, and the generations to come.
