ONCE UPON A TIME IN UGANDA

Directed by Cathryne Czubek, Hugo Perez | 94 min | USA

Set in Uganda, this documentary follows two men from opposite sides of the world who come together over a shared love for Chuck Norris. Isaac, a former brickmaker, decides to pick up a camera and start shooting his own '80s-inspired action epics, and Alan, a film nerd from New York, gives up his life in America to join forces with Isaac after seeing a trailer for one of his films online. Against all odds, the two unlikely friends have catapulted Wakaliwood to worldwide stardom with their own gonzo action movies bringing joy to millions of people across the internet.
