The Wall Street Boy / Kipkemboi tells the story of a young math genius from rural Kenya who uses his understanding of patterns in nature to develop a successful stock market algorithm. His remarkable achievement from a makeshift setup in his village draws attention from international financiers and local authorities, forcing him and his girlfriend Chepchirchir to flee.
“The Wall Street Boy, Kipkemboi has a strong socially conscious subtext as the village youth becomes a political prisoner. The film also is very positive about the role of women as strong equals." ~ Ed Rampell, The Progressive Populist
