'Dalili' is a Swahili term that translates to: "A precursory event that heralds a significant occurrence."

Swahili is widely spoken … estimates ranging from 100 to 150 million speakers worldwide.

'Dalili' is the first in-house independent animation project from Majiqmud Productions, a studio based in Kenya, East Africa founded by griot animator Mute Peter. The studio is focused on developing animated projects inspired by griot storytelling paradigms.

''Dalili' offers an visual exposition into the lives of two young Africans J*Girl and J*GUY, as they both navigate through life
under the beautiful African sky …
while dealing with a quandary …
that’s uniquely African.

The 'Dalili' storyline is set against the backdrop of the maze that is the modern African city-scape … its architecture … its diverse populace … its varying annual seasons in full bloom … and its colorful daily hustle and bustle. A reimagining of our African community in its current state of flux.

The first full trailer for 'Dalili' will arrive at the end of 2019. More of the projects artwork will be appearing as production ramps up, so follow us on our social media to get all the updates.
