Hot Sun Films Team

Nathan Collett HSF Founder

Writer/Director

Nathan grew up overseas: in Venezuela, United States, Australia, Pakistan and Kenya. He now makes his home in Nairobi, Kenya. As a young adult, his time in Kenya inspired Nathan to study African History at Stanford University, California. Nathan's honors thesis at Stanford was a research paper and a documentary on the revival of traditional religion in Kenya. Which inspired him to start Hot Sun Films. He further honed his filmmaking abilities at the prestigious film school at the University of Southern California (USC). Nathan has directed, shot and edited numerous films and videos for corporate clients and has made several award winning fictional short films including KIBERA KID. Currently Nathan is developing a feature length based on KIBERA KID. Through filmmaking and cultural exchanges, Nathan hopes to change the world's impression of Africa and make it a better place for those on the lowest rung of society. He wants to inspire and create change for Kibera and the Urban slums of Africa.
