Help Funding Chasing Colour
Chasing Colour is an independent documentary that delves into the world of sex tourism on the coast of Kenya, revealing the human stories behind this complex reality. Through the eyes of beach boys, ladies of the night, and Western tourists, the film offers an intimate look at their lives, their struggles, and their dreams. Each character’s humanity is at the heart of the story, breaking down stereotypes and uncovering the emotional depth that often goes unnoticed.
With two months of research and another two months of filming already complete, I’m now seeking support to finish production and enter the final stages of post-production. Your contributions will help cover essential costs like hiring a small crew for key scenes, sound design, and music composition.
By donating, you’ll become part of this project, helping to shine a light on an often misunderstood topic and bringing these untold stories to the world.

Elias Ankarvik
Elias is an aspiring documentarian. With studies in moral philosophy and psychology, and experience in journalism, he aims to get as close as possible to his subjects. He believes in a world where coexistence, openness, and patience can bring us closer. By finding empathy with the diametrically different, in an environment where we can allow ourselves to be questioned and accept that we are not the sole possessors of truth, nor the judges, we can come closer to understanding what we are.
Elias, eternally curious about the world, was born and raised in Sweden and has spent the last 13 years traveling the world, immersing himself in different cultures.
