Go see this movie!
Call me Kuchu manages to simultaneously convey the horrific violence and injustice facing Uganda’s LGBT community, and the resilient, lighthearted spirit of the individuals within it. The film’s beautiful cinematography and skillful storytelling bring to light issues of poverty, fear, religion, and humanity. I continue to talk about this film with my friends and family since seeing it over a month ago. One of the best things you can do to combat the complicated and tragic circumstances that homosexuals face in Uganda, or for that matter in our own country, is to see this film and encourage others to do the same!
Brave people, brave story! (Hitchens and Weinberg were right!)
I had vaguely remembered that a gay activist had been killed in Uganda, but didn’t realise until the event in the movie that this man, David Kato, who I had been getting to know and empathising with, was the same one.But the movie does not dwell on his death, more on his life and struggle and that of those around him. His mother is a beautiful character.
I don’t know which was worse, the smug, jokey newspaper editor (it’s cheekily called the “Rolling Stone”) who took no responsibility for any of the hatred he was stirring up or its consequences, or the smug local church people, or the smug, arrogant American evangelist, bringing American-style bigotry to Uganda.
The Anglican Bishop Christopher Senyonjo is a lovable respite from all this hatred, a Ugandan Desmond Tutu. The scenes at David’s funeral, where he rescues the body from a local pastor who wanted to straighten out the LGBTI congregation, are very touching.
And yet, it’s the same religion both he and the bigots are in the thrall of, and equally drives them both to do good or evil, almost at random, underlining Christopher Hitchen’s catchphrase that religion poisons everything, and Steven Weinberg’s, that for good people to do evil, that takes religion.
The courage of the local LGBTI people is amazing. We went through just a tiny fraction of that ordeal 26 years ago, and it seemed bad enough at the time. This movie and the dauntless people in it, packing up and moving on when their lives are endangered, and yet fronting up to courts, hostile crowds, policemen, clergy and thugs (sometimes the same people), will give heart to those who are still struggling.
