'Kifaru' an award-winning documentary about the last white rhino, 'Sudan', premiered with pomp and celebration courtesy of Ol-Pejeta Conservancy at the Trademark Hotel on October 24.

The movie is about two ranger recruits, James Mwenda and Joseph Wachira, who are mentored by a seasoned ranger with an unorthodox approach to caring for Sudan. The movie was produced by film director David Hambridge.

Spanning over the course of the recruits’ first four years on the job, 'Kifaru' allows viewers to experience the joys and pitfalls of conservation firsthand through the lens of the men who look into the eyes of extinction on a daily basis.
