Are international efforts to alleviate poverty in Africa undermining the very communities they aim to benefit? Good Fortune presents a unique perspective on human rights abuses and environmental destruction carried out in the name of progress in Kenya. With a broad scope and intimate style, the film portrays surprising stories of human perseverance in the face of projects that may be doing more harm than good.
Filmmakers Landon Van Soest and Jeremy Levine and HRW Kenya researcher Ben Rawlence in attendance
