Every Sunday morning, all the Catholics of Ikutha, in rural Kenya, go to church. Religion plays an important role in the community. Besides singing, important issues such as AIDS are treated. This rural locality has only around 500 inhabitants and is located in the heart of Kenya already worn away by a government who has corrupted it for more than 20 years. It belongs to the region of Kitui that, in spite of its proximity to the capital, Nairobi, is one of the developed areas less of the country. Nothing else to arrive, after lengths and tedious kilometres of dust and pockets, great posters give the welcome you: Let’s talk, we speak. They are the mirror of a society that moved away of the new technologies, the telephone, and the running water and of the electricity, it has not been able to escape of which it has been the epidemic of century XX: the AIDS.
