NGOs + Nairobi + The Office = Aid for Aid

A pair of Kenyan filmmakers want to make a black comedy about an NGO that does nothing. Based on the description and the clips shown, it looks like the hit UK and US show The Officeset in an NGO in Nairobi.

They are using Kickstarter to raise money for the project and look to be on track to tip the $10,000 fundraising point before time runs out on Monday. Their goal is to bring on some writers to develop the scripts and take steps to make it more professional.To get a better sense of the format, you can watch an 8 minute clip here (can't embed_.

My favorite part may be that the name of the organization is called "Aid for Aid."
