Now, contribute the same amount you spent on your last cup of coffee on gofund.me/8d25dd32
Before going to Uganda last year to make this documentary, Isak Friberg and I got in contact with local filmmaker Deo. He decided to join us during this week filming for the BTS film, just to get the experience. Check out his Youtube here: @deokuset
We ended up becoming really good friends and I learned about the struggles of being a filmmaker in Uganda. Gear is super expensive and hard to come by. If a camera costs 2000 USD and an average client can pay 50 USD for a job, the equation doesn't really match.
But Deo's dream is not only to make more money, he wants to share the stories of real people in his beautiful country.
When it was time to go, I realized that if my purpose in doing this work is to spread positive stories in the world - helping Deo get off the ground is the single biggest impact I can make. So I left him the lighting equipment that brought. I signed up a year of Squarespace for him (link in a comment) but I felt I needed to do more.
So here we are. I'm doing this fundraiser to get him a proper camera, some batteries, a few memory cards and other basic equipment to get started.
I will match all donations 100% even if it ruins me in the process.
Check out this film and his incredible story on how he raised money for the safe birth of his daughter: youtu.be/mt1gfmaIXW8
