Tough Bond is about our irrepressible need as humans for family. The film follows 4 kids who find family and a new identity as Survivors, living together on the streets of Kenya, huffing glue to endure the hell of street life. Recorded over 3 years, Tough Bond illustrates the alarming trajectory of the new generation of Kenya's indigenous tribes that has abandoned its broken villages in search of a new life in the nearby towns and exploding city slums. Calling themselves Survivors, our characters take us deep into the parallel world they've created for themselves on the streets - a brutal playground held together by a code of responsibility to no one but each other, borne from rejection by their community and cold neglect by their government.
