The Trial of Dedan Kimathi in three movements encapsulates the past, present, and future. Kimathi is a Kenyan revolutionary who has been captured and awaits trial. During Kimathi's incarceration, he is visited by ghosts from his past, the spirit of his people, and various representatives of oppressive institutions.
