What he thinks can make the film industry tick..

“I think our film industry has failed to pick up on the latest trend and fashion of acting or skit making since most of its work is past relative. That has limited us from domestic support being that Even our fellow Ugandans are exposed to better external productions such as Nollywood and others limiting the growth of our industry,” Kefas notes.
