A path between songs, recitatives and stories that trace the arrival and adventures of our countrymen in the African country. Among historical courses and resorts, anecdotes and memories, unlikely Swahili versions of popular Italian songs and other poetic moments, surreal or music, Freddie evoke the epic story of the Italians in Kenya and all the glorious situations and grotesque connected. Without forgetting the great contribution of the "mal d'Afrique" to continuously falling in love for those arriving from the beautiful country and settled equator.
