Look at all that talent and they are living off the streets. Dear God, please open doors for them. Many thanks to the filmmaker and to all who made this documentary possible.
Am so proud of moha. I would love to meet him ance am in Kenya his responsibility is in another level. I wished every father would be like him. God bless the whole group and a big shame to the gov. For not making any effort to help such young talented youth.
I hope they make it in life. Such positivity as they go through their hard life. Thank you for sharing, everyone's voice needs to be heard. Now they can be seen as human beings not just street kids.
I have met them in tao near City market parking cars.I never imagined this is what they go through.It’s my prayer they make it in life.My advice to them,go online,Tiktok,RUclips,Facebook and Instagram will help them at least get a some cash and market themselves more.
The only 50-minute video that is not boring but emotionally inspiring. These boys need a promoter and sponsor who will make their dream turn into reality. God bless and protect them. RUclips will sort their problems out with views.
The resolve on raising a son in such life is something else. There leader is also on another level. May God keep them well. I am worried for Gidi though.
i like the positive mindset they have n not involving in crime is one way of putting their lives together no matter how hard the situation might be ,Big up boys!
That's right I agree with you why don't he put them on tiktok then from tiktok put them on Instagram with a cash app attached to help with funding to get them some matching outfits or whatever they need. I'm willing to donate after all these my little baby brothers from the motherland so their family
@@treasurehunter183hunter8 governments..corrupt officials. They will find a way to get money off, the innocent trying to make a decent and honest living. Things, will change..we serve a living God. 🙏🇿🇦🙏
I normally see them outside clubs dancing, i have never stopped to watch am ashamed i have never even given them a single coin. I never imagined this is what they go through! From today i will make an effort to support them whenever i spot them
I saw a group of dancers last month when I was in Nairobi. Im not sure if these men are the ones I saw however, I pray that they continue to go after their dreams. Thank you for this story.
This is me. When I look back I see myself, thats how I grew Up in the streets of Nairobi. I was there from 1999 to 2007. I have done everything I see in this documentary. Here I am today having achieved a University degree and now doing a managerial Job in one of the fastest growing Healthcare company in Kenya. I can assure you they still have a future only if they avoid crime. I will be sharing the story on my you tube channel , subscribe and wait for it here ruclips.net/user/RickMasekeFred
A great documentary highlighting the struggles these young men go through everyday to live, in a society that mostly see them in a negative light. I pray they may have a better future. Its hard life ...am impressed the way they are full of life and hope...its moving story.
I am glad the reporter kept track of the boys pre covid till now.I hope things open up soon so they can get back to doing what they love the most,dancing
Great piece, Nick! One of the most organically pieced production. I could almost feel to be part of the crew's struggles. It's unfortunate we couldn't get each of crew members' account. I can relate to Moha's struggle a the full-time nanny whilst the sole breadwinner. I wish I could host the crew in my four bedroomed house. They need basic cushioning during this harsh times. I feel like crowdfunding for them based on this moving documentary. I loved it.
These young men are so talented! May their break come quickly 🙏🏽 Great documentary, it has also explained the origin of the name "parking boys" (I had totally forgotten that one!)
These guys Are doing a good job and i have learnt something about them that success does not come easy u have to fight and work hard for it God will surely see them through thanks For BBC to interview them Hardwork pays Never give up guys
I’m going to Kenya in December! It’s been almost a decade since I’ve been there. I miss it so much but hate that my people still struggle like this. Do they have a TikTok channel?????
I wonder why people still live in Shanty towns. I can see the effort these boys are making to better their lives & I hope they make it. I can hardly imagine what be fronted them in the Pandemic. Their loyalty to each other is fantastic.
@@SteveyMane Hi Steve I think you got my comments wrong. I am wondering why governments around the world, the United Nations, the Charities & the rich around the world cannot help change the situation fast enough I Learn efforts are being made by these organisation & reason for me to say I wonder why people are till living in shanty towns I expected the situation to have been resolved in some parts over the decades gone by but the situation remains the same. It is a heart wrenching situation for me to think about it. I do know the reasons behind these situations I only pray that it will change one day.
@@esthermensah5346 My bad... I get you now. It's quite a sad situation but the first world countries don't really care about Africa other than exploiting the natural resources, making money and tapping into the human resources. It's upto African governments themselves to come up with a clear plan and uplift the lives of their people.
This is such a disgrace to the Kenyan government. It seems they aren’t even making an effort to put things in place to help the poor youth or homeless youth. All those loans and investments from China and Europe just enriches the rich government officials pockets. I hope something positive happens to these determined young men and they get to realize their dreams and improve their lives. This world is cruel.
Try to understand why they are homeless in the first place, govt can not be blamed even for parental and personal responsibilities and govt definitely doesnt have the ability to help everyone , we would all love govt handouts but even the big old USA hasnt being able to end homelessness with all the money they got , think about this Instead of trying to play victim
A very touching documentary. Thanks for showing the world what people go through to just keep alive. The judge who released these kids free, God bless you. As for the Kanjo he who kills by the sword will die by the very sword. They are sucha pitiless lot.
Awesome story. I am however shocked that the intention of the Childs father was to keep him alone in the house the whole day after taking him away from the care of the aunt and other family in the rural area. Good job from the chief to give hi a wake up call.
I love their creativity. Imagine From dancing to parking cars.This is good. These boys re Stars I also love bond btn Moha and his son Malik. They are both happy in their Struggles. However the Struggles they through re so terrible. Bosco's relationship with his father isn't good. Imagine your Father marrying four times. I don't know how i would perseve it if i was in his shoes. One thing i Love about them is Organisation. These boys re organized inspite of their differences. This Gigi boy is very strong and powerful. How earth can you overpower four strong men?
Each and all of you guys are amzing beautifull dancers. I am so happy for this video to have watched you guys. I am praying for you guys to have a better life and you should never give up hope nor your drreams. You all can do it. Stick with eachother and do alot of dancing, teach other kids to dance for earnings, Make some dance video's and as ËSMERTAC"here said, put it on RUclips/ Tik Tok. I am sure you will be recognized and people will ask you guys to dance in there music videos. You guys just need recognition.... I am so sure you can do it, stay strong, together you are strong! I wish you all the best life can offer you!
'This is a film about hope and ingenuity, resilience and courage, as the boys find ways to survive and keep dancing - hoping, against all the odds, that they will break through and hit the big time.' The above conclusion is interesting. Having said that the issue is has an emergency side which is the young in street, homeless. In every certainty, without being celebrities or hit the big time, there can be solutions that can address the issue related to homelessness. Thus alternative ideas can be offered to these young. For instance if they have the means could they transform their passion of dance into a small business where they propose music for weeding, birthdays, etc by organizing everything that is related to dance during these events? Since they are passionate about dance but are homeless, can they be trained in the industry related where they learn to be sound engineer, etc
@@kerstin2148 What you call 'the right break' is a solution, but not what their situation requires in form of a spontaneous answer. They are in street, homeless. You can't address such a situation by saying 'they just need the right break'. Life in street in a life of vulnerabilities. There can be ideas on how to mentor these young by offering them some alternative solutions that can allow them not to live in the street in the mean time. If you say the 'Wedding and Party industry is big, then they can imagine many things that can be the opportunity to employees in that industry to play a role beyond their professional ones. They can imagine things.
Am a father of a 3 years old daughter and i can tell you for sure am inspired by this man for being a responsible father.
Same king. 24/7. Keep it up. Proud Father.
Thanks bro deep in to your family
Where is the Childs mother/
The spirit of Africans when faced with such hardship never ceases to amazes me...I wish these powerful people all the best. Love from the UK.
Moha and King Malik… that was so heartfelt!!!! I hope these boys make it! They deserve so much more!!
Tthangs
Moha do what’s your contact information I would love to help.
Look at all that talent and they are living off the streets. Dear God, please open doors for them. Many thanks to the filmmaker and to all who made this documentary possible.
Am so proud of moha. I would love to meet him ance am in Kenya his responsibility is in another level. I wished every father would be like him. God bless the whole group and a big shame to the gov. For not making any effort to help such young talented youth.
Moha has earned my respect
Moha is a real man! Look after your seed always
Appreciate you
It's admirable what these guys are doing, but no Kenyan should live like this. There is enough for everyone.
Distribution is always the problem, isn't?
hafai kamwe. big up to bbc
hafai kamwe. big up to bbc
True
...but sitting in a few pockets
Father & Son bonding caught my attention... More boys deserve to grow with present dads
I hope they make it in life. Such positivity as they go through their hard life. Thank you for sharing, everyone's voice needs to be heard. Now they can be seen as human beings not just street kids.
Fantastic storytelling. Kenya owes these boys so much better than this. Wishing them all the success in the world.
Me too

Moha's love for his son is inspiring. Such a great young father with the desire to do better for his son. What a great documentary 👏🏾
Thank you
Thank you
This video is Golden. Whatever you've done for these guys will change their lives forever. Respect.

Why don't they open a Tiktok or RUclips channel, I'm sure it would generate something for them😐🌚

The fight these boys put up is unprecedented. God bless them all.
Good job Nick, Maurice and the crew....a great Documentary indeed
I love Bosco's mentality, dress well to avoid the cop

BBC AFRICA should be renamed BBC KENYA! Theirs 54 countries in Africa it would be very insightful and interesting to their stories!!
Amazing work Nicholas.
Bribery in Africa is a must for the police and the politicians.
