There is a new tribe in Kenya called “Survivors” and they are easily identified by the bottle pressed against their lips. This fiercely loyal gang of children exists in the margins of an urban wilderness, huffing glue to endure the hell of street life. Following four kids over three years, TOUGH BOND delivers an alarming portrait of life in modern day Kenya.
