STERO
Status: Released
Bruce Koech, a lone ranger with the heart of a warrior, accepts a mission from his imaginary Sensei - to be a badass hero. In school, Koech is forced to wear the disk - an ugly bone after speaking Kiswahili contrary to the school’s language policy.
The rest of the day becomes a long, walk of shame for Koech. He faces ridicule with every corner he turns. Sensei pushes him to remove the disk and protect his honor. At the height of his humiliation, Koech removes the disk, landing into trouble with the Headmaster.
At the Headmaster's office, Koech is caned. He musters all his strength to endure the pain and protect his honor but falls short - the pain is too much.
He yields to the pain and wears the disk. He leaves the office one step shy of becoming a badass hero.
