09. Bwana Jogoo, Screening and discussion at Alliance Française Kampala
Alliance Française of Kampala, in partnership with Uganda National Museum, is organizing a screening of the Bwana Jogoo documentary, followed by a panel discussion!
Synopsis : At the centre of the documentary ‘Bwana Jogoo: The Ballad of Jessy Gitta’ is a love triangle between the 1970’s Cranes band bass player Jessy Gitta Kasirivu, President Idi Amin Dada and Sarah ‘Suicide’ Kyolaba, a then 17 year old go-go dancer. Jessy Gitta is Sarah’s lover when Amin also starts dating her, with dire consequences for Jessy.
Idi Amin’s regime was based on an existing unequal social fabric he took advantages of that was then marked by a progressive infiltration of militarism from 1971 to 1979. The idea of this conference/panel would be to shed light and create a panorama of the ruler and ruled, men and women, but also elite and ordinary, dominant and marginalised under Idi Amin’s regime. All the while using the incredible story told in Michiel van Oosterhout’s incredible documentary film ‘Bwana Joggo’ as a vehicle as a window into the time and experiences of artists, leaders and everyday people at that time.
Documentary will start at 6:30PM – Uganda National Museum
Free entry
