YOTVChannels is a platform for our local content. Ugandans are now a tap away to watch different storytelling techniques from around Uganda and share them with global audiences with Kibanda Express. There is a unique tradition of storytelling in every country and, if it can be captured on film, then through YOTVChannels we can share it with the world. Pearlwood is a great example that our local movie industry can be global and that Uganda is a great entertainment market for the rest of the world.
