interesting look at colonial Kenya

This gives an interesting look at Kenya,just after the outbreak of the Mau Mau uprising.The valiant district commissioner trying to do his best,even if his wife undermines him by asking the cook to make spaghetti.Whilst not a polished production I do not think that this in any way detracts from the historical importance of this film.You could see the end of Empire coming.
