Unyagoni: Bahatiโs Sex Education Journey follows Bahati Ngazi, an iconic MC and magnetic radio star from Mombasa, Kenya, as she embarks on an intimate exploration of Swahili sex education. Known for her fearless voice on air, Bahati now steps off the mic and into a world of generational wisdom, guided by the women who uphold these sacred traditions. From a curious novice, โMiklesoโ, to a respected sex educator, โKungwiโ, Bahati undergoes a personal transformation, challenging societal taboos around sex, womanhood and pleasure. Through enchanting rituals, the film honours the cultural richness of Swahili practices while reclaiming sex as sacred, intentional and pleasurable for both parties. Unyagoni is both a rite of passage and a radical act of autonomy, affirming womenโs right to desire, knowledge and self-defined pleasure in a modern world.
