Karamoja Faces
Karamoja Faces
This Film is for younger views and combines the animated sections of the Film 'Karamoja City Warriors'.
The story of a small Karamojong boy who is taken to the city to beg. He comes face to face with the dangers of the street but somehow with the help of the animals of Karamojaland he manages to survive. After 6 months he is returned to his homeland suffering from the traumas of begging in the city. Again it is the traditional animals he believes in that come to his rescue and organise a better future for him.
The Government of Uganda and UNICEF estimates up to 2000 Karamojong are on the streets of Kampala - of which 90% are women with small children.
This film was designed to cost as little as possible to show that animation and video can be an affordable method of communication for minority tribes in the developing world.
