The cinematic return of the global phenomenon, follows the Crawley family and their staff as they enter the 1930s. When Mary finds herself at the center of a public scandal and the family faces financial trouble, the entire household grapples with the threat of social disgrace.

The Crawleys must embrace change as the staff prepares for a new chapter with the next generation leading Downton Abbey into the future in this final film in the series.

Sarah is a powerful and emotionally resonant film that tells the story of a young Maasai girl navigating the delicate balance between tradition and modernity. The film addresses critical issues such as female genital cutting (FGC), girls’ education, and the financial hardships that shape family decisions. Through Sarah’s journey, the film aims to ignite vital conversations about the importance of education, the right of girls to make their own choices, and the urgent need to eliminate harmful cultural practices like FGC.

Sarah is the first-ever feature film in Kimaasai, created using the stories of real women from Maasai communities. Sarah is more than a film. It’s a movement for change that will contribute to local, national, and international efforts to promote gender equality through FGC abandonment. This is an issue of health, gender, and environmental justice.

A Q&A with the film’s director and producer Nick Reding will follow the screening.
