Event Opportunity: Bobi Wine: The People's President: In-Person Screening and Q&A

WFTV members are invited to this special screening of Bobi Wine: The People's President, directed by Moses Bwayo and Christopher Sharp. After the screening there will be a Q&A with Bobi Wine and Barbie Kyagulanyi.

Born in the slums of Kampala, Bobi Wine, Ugandan opposition leader, former member of parliament, activist and national superstar musician, risks his life and the lives of his wife, Barbie, and their children to fight the ruthless regime led by Yoweri Museveni. Museveni has been in power since 1986 and changed Uganda’s constitution to enable him to run for yet another five-year term.

Running in the Country’s 2021 presidential elections, Bobi Wine uses his music to denounce the dictatorial regime and support his life mission to defend the oppressed and the voiceless people of Uganda. In this fight, he must also take on the country’s police and military, which are not afraid to use violence and torture in a vain attempt to intimidate and silence him and his supporters.

You can watch the trailer to the film here.
