Great storytelling and brilliant cinematography

While the film takes on ambitious subject matter, it nails it, with some great performances at its heart. The trio at the centre of the story are all very engaging, Kisakye in particular, and they drive the story on even during the odd moment when the plot slows down. Plus, it certainly does the beautiful scenery of Uganda justice with how excellently well shot it is.

All in all, a very enjoyable film that's well worth a watch!

Utterly boring to watch, but some interesting ideas.

This movie has nothing extraordinary, and I suspect that the 10/10 reviews are from the production themselves.

Otherwise, there are some really good ideas, and the the choice of location is great. You get some nice place specially in India and Uganda.

The main problem is that once the movie pass 30 min, the story goes all other the place, the main character seems to act randomly and the narration get lost in long and boring non senses.

The movie stop becoming interesting and it is hard to reach the end without suffering off boredom.

The director needs to manage the tempo of his movie to keep the interest of the viewer. Having beautiful scenery is not enough.

The storytelling in this movie is pretty bad.

do not buy into the hype

This is really bad. Amateur sound editing and mixing, terrible acting, horrendous writing. I could not pass the 25 minutes mark.

Hypnotising debut

A British / Ugandan touch to Allende's magical realism, this film is both thought-provoking, touching on important thematics like post-colonialism and self-knowledge, and very aesthetically pleasing. Absolutely recommend it, Dan Moss is definitely on point with this and I look forward to his new works.
