    Award Winning Documentary Film by a Netflix filmmaker
    The Pearl of Africa (2016) - Official Trailer HD
    A Documentary about love, hate and being transgender
    The Pearl of Africa is a award winning documentary (short & feature length) about Cleopatra Kambugu, a 28 year old Ugandan transgender woman. Biologically born male, but against all odds, transitioning into the woman she knows she was born to be. Through an intimate fight for love in Uganda, one of the worlds most transphobic places. Once named The Pearl Of Africa by Winston Churchill, for it’s vast diversity in gender, flora and fauna. We get an insight into what it means to love as trans.

    How is the "phase shift" effect of the voice at 0:13 made? Sounds really interesting!

      Creative North BM should sponsor you. If more people knew what youve been able to accomplish with these very affordable BM cameras their sales would go up!

    Was this shot with the blackmagic pocket cinema camera?.
    Do you recommend it for feature films in 2018?.
    Thx a lot!

    Hey Johnny, I have recently discovered your channel and already started to like it a lot. I now discovered your project "The Pearl of Africa" and would really like to get to watch the documentary. Is it possible to buy it or how do I get to watch it?
    Continue with your work, I'm sure there will still be a lot to come in the future for such a talented director as you are. Your work has also personally inspired me to get to shoot films on my own as soon as posible. I have actually never made a movie before but am really keen on doing so in the future.
    Have a nice day!

      Hey Lukas! Cool! Yes, it will be released in the beginning of next year. European premiere takes place in the end of November. I'd be happy to send it to you afterwards. Just let me know if you have any questions regarding the making of your first film. I'd be happy to help.

    • @lukasmaier3210
      @lukasmaier3210 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Creative North Thanks for your quick response. ;)
      That would be really nice if you can send it to me afterwards.
      Unfortunately I do not know what to film about. But evey time I do watch creative videos/short movies etc. on TH-cam I have the urge to create one on my own. I am quite into photography already, but unfortunately I do not have any experience or knowledge about filming.
      Do you have any advice for me on how to beginn at the start?

      Creative North hi! I saw the documentary and I really enjoyed it, but I'm intrigued by the song that was playing at the beggining when they are dancing together and she is wearing the red dress can you tall me the name?

    Why call it the pearl if Africa?

    • @Jonnyvonwallstrom
      @Jonnyvonwallstrom  8 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Lula good question. This film was entirely shot in Uganda, and the story revolves around the life, love, fear, and struggles of two Ugandans who have nothing but to love each other, in a place where transgenders are persecuted. Uganda in well-known as the Pearl of Africa.

      I hope this gets a showing in Australia (I am currently based in Sydney)Creative North. If I am not mistaken, didn't Winston Churchill refer to Uganda as 'The Pearl of Africa'.. on a trip there in 1907.."For magnificence, for variety of form and colour, for profusion of brilliant life…Uganda truly is the pearl of Africa”. (WC). I suspect this might have had something to do with a judicious choice of title..

    I just watched this documentary tonight and it's beautiful! Cleo is a courageous woman and I adore her, and she inspires me; and her husband Nelson is so supportive and loving, everyone should have someone like him in their life.
