Bobi Wine Ghetto President Directed by Moses Bwayo, Christopher Sharp

August 2014. The United Kingdom refused entry visas to the famous Ugandan singer Bobi Wine. How did a homophobic rapper, banned from the UK, manage to become Uganda's presidential candidate? How did he manage, after a few years, to be welcomed in the USA and England as a hero of political correctness?

The phenomenon is explained with skill by the directors Moses Bwayo and Christopher Sharp in the beautiful documentary Bobi Wine Ghetto President, presented at the 79th Venice Film Festival.

Bobi Wine is brilliant, devoted. He is fun with the crowd, docile in the hands of promotion but also divisive for Ugandans.
