Just Not Married tells a story of two brothers who choose opposite paths. Duke, a promising undergraduate student, is broke. It’s a crippling problem, as he must provide for his critically ill mother and his ex-con brother. With the help of his best friend Lati and his sassy crush Keji, he hatches a genius plan to steal cars: after Lati breaks into a vehicle, they dress it up with ribbons and bows to resemble a honeymoon vehicle. But the success of their scheme sends Duke into a spiral of guilt, and he stops attending school even though he knows it’s his only means of escaping the slums. When their modest criminal enterprise goes a bit too far, the three friends realize that they’re in over their heads.

Yusuf is a young university graduate suffering from discrimination, lack of opportunity and the rage of youth against injustice. As he slowly becomes seduced by extremist thought, his family seem powerless to dissuade him. His Uncle Salim, the only father figure around, is helpless in the face of his nephew's ideology. Salim, recently reunited with Jack, his best friend from childhood, is helpless as these three lives become fatally entwined. But Yusuf's sister has another plan. Knowing the solutions are with the communities of Mombasa - she takes her story to the streets. As the film becomes documentary, we see real audiences in Mombasa take the roles of Yusuf's mother, sister and uncle, and in doing so give voice to the majority Muslim community of coastal Kenya. Can the citizens of Mombasa change the tragic outcome of this story?

Malika, leader of Traitors, an all-female punk rock band, has a strong vision of the world, her hometown of Tangier, and her place in it. When she needs money to save her family from eviction and to realize her dreams for the band, Malika agrees to a fast cash proposition: a smuggling run over the mountains for a dangerous drug dealer. But her companion on the road is Amal, a burnt-out young drug mule who Malika decides to free from her enslavement to the dangerous drug dealers. The challenge will put Malika's rebel ethos to the test, and to survive she will have to call on all her instincts and nerve.
