Karen Kanewe writes that Veve is a story of political intrigue, revenge, love, and longings for success complemented by the background of the thriving yet unregulated veve business.
The movie VEVE produced in 2014 follows the lives of a number of characters in a Kenyan society who are caught up in a world of political conspiracy, desire for success, love and revenge.

On the other hand, Sammy a right-hand man to Amos is in the dilemma of choosing loyalty to his duties or taking care of his 12-year old son Kago.
Clint, a documentary filmmaker goes too far interrogating Amos about a farmer’s farm that was burned down not knowing the dangers he’s putting himself and others into.
The movie is rich. A showcase that Kenya is becoming of age in matters film. The Meru setting is beautiful scenery, the actors are authentic and the actions captivating. Definitely, Simon Mwikali has stood out as a creative worth noticing.
