''Watu Wote'' (sometimes called ''Watu Wote: All of Us'') is a 2017 short film (22 minutes) directed by Katya Benrath.
The film is set in UsefulNotes/{{Kenya}} in December 2015 and is based on a true incident. Kenya is being plagued by incursions from Al-Shabaab, a Muslim terrorist group based in Somalia, which borders Kenya. Jua is a Christian woman who boards a bus in Nairobi, headed off on a 31-hour journey into the countryside to visit her ailing mother. The bus stops in a village for the night, where Jua is chatted up by a Muslim passenger, Salah, who is headed to meet his pregnant wife. Jua responds to Salah's friendly overtures by telling him to leave her alone, because Muslim terrorists killed her husband and baby girl.
With dawn the next morning, the bus heads off again. It's still early when gun-toting Muslim terrorists seize the bus. The terrorists force everyone off and demand that the Muslim passengers identify the Christians, so that they can be killed.

!!Tropes:
* AfricanTerrorists: As this film is based on a real incident, it dramatizes a real-life terrorist group, Al-Shabaab, which is based in Syria but operates throughout east Africa. They attack a bus in Kenya.
* DramaticGunCock: One of the terrorists spots the woman sitting next to Jua on the bus. He says "You were sitting next to a Christian woman," then dramatically works the action on his machine gun before saying "Where is she?"
* FaceFramedInShadow: Jua is sitting on the bus, which is not due to leave for several hours. She is creeped out by another man on the bus who is looking at her, his face partially lit by the streetlight outside. He turns out to be completely harmless, but the scene establishes the ominous mood.
* HandGag: The Muslim woman with a baby sitting next to Jua, who has not said a word to her throughout the trip, claps a hand over Jua's mouth as the terrorists board the bus. She then hurriedly puts a spare hijab from her bag over Jua, and takes the rosary that Jua the Christian had in her hand.
* ShutUpGunshot: The bus passengers are all screaming and wailing outside the bus, when the terrorist leader fires his gun into the air to get their attention.
* TrashcanBonfire: Such a bonfire in the opening scene, when Jua is walking through a pedestrian underpass, establishes the poverty in that particular part of Nairobi.
