Initially it was only to be screened once a day at Prestige Cinema, but IMAX has come on board and will also be screening the Wanuri Kahiu feature.
The film had earlier been banned by the Kenya Film Classification Board but the high coart judge on Friday temporarily lifted a ban on the film, making it eligible to be entered for a Foreign Language Oscar.
The screenings have turned out to be colourful as the movie is and it has not stopped young Kenyans from turning out in colours that support the LGBTQ.
