In 2014 Chisi began collaboration with retired US Army Soldier and American author Coren Jonathan Allen on a project to develop a short film based on Coren's book ''"What if it Just Started Raining?"'' Since their initial partnership, with special inspiration from Zambian singer-song writer [[Mumba Yachi]], a foundation for [[The Kambimbi Academy]] was born.  ''"What if it Just Started Raining?"'' contains the foundational concepts upon which the Kambimbi Academy is built and Chisi / Allen intend to develop an additional film which captures this powerful concept of breathing life to an legend — the Legend of the African Rain Bird!  They anticipate launching a pilot documentary in [[Lusaka]] sometime during the fall of 2017.<ref>[http://www.whatifitjuststartedraining.com/the-movie WHAT IF IT JUST STARTED RAINING? official website]</ref>
