The Ugandan logline is 'Obusilise bwogezi', which means 'silence speaks'. The protagonist is the deaf and dumb girl Hope, who is closely followed during an adventurous journey through the hectic city of Kampala. Fiction, yet more realistic than many documentaries. It’s no accident that passers-by in the street in the Ugandan capital Kampala regularly look in the camera. The directors of the African guerilla film making collective 'Yes! That’s Us' conceived a story, collected cast and crew and set out into the street with a camera. No extras, dollies or artificial lighting; just camera on and action. After a shocking event about which the viewer is left ignorant for a long time, the deaf and dumb Hope moves from her home village to Kampala, to visit her younger sister G. But G. is not interested in the responsibilities that caring for her sister would involve. After yet another conflict, Hope leaves the house and disappears in the maze of streets and alleyways in the capital. There she learns the dangers of life on the street the hard way. Unlike the melodramatic acting in the Nigerian Nollywood films so loved in Central Africa, this low-budget guerrilla drama is striking for its restrained style.
