Through Our Eyes was a mirror of who we are. Hosted by Nyokabi Macharia #SSS2025 made us feel films, personally, joyfully, unapologetically African. As night fell, the air pulsed with Liboi's live set, Afro-house beats, and our signature call: Watch Shorts.Wear Shorts.Take Shots.

We laughed through "Story za Njamba" by @DavidWaronja, reflected on identity with "HOME" by @ADELLEO, and vibed to the fierce fashion of "The Incredible Sensational Fiancé of Ajayi" by @abbmona. Not to forget the film horsepower of Irabura: The Odyssey by Rose Kambua& @isayaevans
