The Shower

I am a very passionate Acoli native story-teller! Growing up where there was no access to TVs at home, I was fascinated by folk-tales as told by our seniors around the bound fire. I would identify myself with the tales and loose myself in imaginations every time I hear one. This has in the long run impacted how I make films. I won’t make any film unless I am emotionally and psychologically attached to the story. For I believe, once the creator of art work is not impacted by his work first, the audience might also not be impacted by it. During the production of the any film, I would make sure I fuse all the various elements of arts; music, sounds, visuals, performance and authenticity among other things to make the story engaging and thoughts-provoking to the audience. Most of my films tackle situations around our society but I don’t offer solutions, I rather make films that provoke discussions and challenge our perceptions, thoughts and deeds of our society. I make films basically for two reasons; to raise awareness and entertain at the same time. As a story teller, I hope my work get to touch more people and help keep the society in check, for I artistically subscribe to the school of thoughts that “art is supposed to comfort those who are disturbed and disturb those who are comfortable”.
