McKnight refers to the locals being hopped up on khat. Khat (also known as miraa) is a type of leaf with a long stem that acts as a stimulant when chewed. Most of the miraa coming into Somalia comes from Kenya. During the covid crisis the borders were closed but Somalis were willing to pay eight times as much for it when smuggled in by fishing boats. It is estimated that 40% of the Somali people are miraa users; a figure that is similar to what it was during the time depicted in this film.
