Within the slums of Kampala, two males from reverse sides of the world come collectively over a shared love for America’s best hero: Rambo. Towards all odds, the 2 make their very own motion films with no cash — and convey pleasure to tens of millions of individuals on the web. Welcome to “Wakaliwood.” By way of comedy and kung-fu, "As soon as Upon a Time in Uganda" chronicles the unlikely friendship between Isaac Nabwana, a director hailed as “Africa’s Tarantino,” and Alan Hofmanis, a movie programmer from New York. Whereas Isaac tirelessly makes function after function, Alan brings his movies to worldwide audiences. However tensions flare as Isaac’s star rises — threatening their partnership and all of Wakaliwood.
