Thank You for The Rain is a collaborative film by Kisilu Musya, a Kenyan farmer and Julia Dahr, a Norwegian filmmaker. For five years Kisilu used his camera to capture the life of his family, his village and the impacts of climate change.

The film then follows him as he starts building a community-based movement of farmers fighting the impacts of extreme weather.
