The powerful speech that award-winning filmmaker @nabwisomathew gave @ikonawards where he launched the Producers Guild of Uganda (PGU), explaining its purpose. As filmmakers, we too are investors in our country and we must ensure we continuously earn from our creativity.

Some films entertain, others teach valuable life lessons.
The Unforgivable confronts domestic violence, childhood trauma and the pain families pass from one generation to another.

Drowning prevention cannot rest on the passenger alone. Boat owners, event organisers, regulators and communities each carry responsibility before any vessel enters the water.
Between the greetings and conversations at this morning’s Balance the Boat premiere, one point keeps returning: preventing another tragedy requires clear safety standards, consistent enforcement and the courage to stop a journey when something is wrong.
Remembering the MV Templer tragedy must influence how we organise, regulate and travel on our waters today.

Young people often ask how they should turn talent into a career. My response today was practical: identify the problem your skill solves, understand who values the solution and develop a model through which they will pay for it.
Talent becomes an enterprise when it consistently creates value.

Talent is an opportunity, but opportunity needs work.
At USEA Faces of Impact, my message was that young people should develop their abilities into services, businesses and solutions which create income and improve their communities.
Your passion should build more than attention. It should build value.

We went to the Elgon region, West Nile, Kasese and Katereza to listen. Same message everywhere: the talent is here, the stories are here and the passion is also.
Filmmakers need a platform for collaboration, distribution and markets.
That’s what the #iKONSociety Creative Exchanges are here to build, with creatives, not for them.

Katereza gave us an evening filled with honest conversation, creative energy and confidence in the future of film in Western Uganda.
At the iKON Society Creative Exchange for the Western Region, filmmakers shared their experiences, ideas and ambitions. We discussed collaboration, production support, distribution and stronger pathways for local films to reach audiences.
I left Katereza encouraged by the talent and shared purpose around the fireside. We will keep listening and build the iKON Society alongside the creatives shaping Uganda’s film industry.

Meaningful Film conversations were had in Rwampara District. Every region has stories worth telling, talent worth investing in & voices worth hearing. Here’s to building a more connected, inclusive & thriving film ecosystem together.
Producers Guild of Uganda retweeted
I want every filmmaker and creative we meet to understand one thing: we want to walk this journey with you.
From Elgon to West Nile and now Kasese, the iKON Society Creative Exchange has brought us into direct conversation with the people building Uganda’s film industry across the regions.
These exchanges are helping us shape the iKON Society around the experiences and priorities of Uganda’s filmmakers.
These are some of the words of encouragement I shared with the creative community in Kasese.
