NOMINEE: Best Documentary - UGANDA FILM FESTIVAL
I am a passionate storyteller inspired by a love of story . I use this love to breathe life into my communication work like film, radio, writing, voice over, content creation and general communications.
We made this film to honor & celebrate these Ugandan women who have fought and continue the fight for women's rights. We also want to teach the younger generation the real authentic story behind feminism & the feminist movement.
