Good Fortune is a feature documentary that explores how massive international efforts to alleviate poverty in Africa may be undermining the communities they are designed to benefit. Through intimate portraits of individuals living in the poorest area of Kenya, the film presents a unique perspective on human rights violations and environmental destruction carried out in the name of progress. The film follows the lives of four individuals as they stand up to international development institutions that are threatening to destroy their homes and livelihoods.
