The Uganda Film Festival 2025, organized by the Uganda Communications Commission (UCC), is currently underway, running from May 26 to June 6, 2025. This year's theme, “Local Stories, Global Impact,” underscores the festival's mission to celebrate and elevate Ugandan storytelling on both a national and international scale.
Throughout the festival period, a series of events and activities have been held, ranging from film screenings at major cinemas, to industry workshops, panel forums, and regional outreach programs. These engagements are designed not only to showcase talent but also to build capacity among emerging filmmakers, writers, and producers across the country.
The festival will culminate in the highly anticipated Awards Gala on Friday, June 6, at Uganda Institute of Information and Communications Technology (UICT) where outstanding achievements in film will be recognized across multiple categories. The Uganda Film Festival continues to serve as a powerful platform for promoting local content, empowering creatives, and fostering global collaborations within the film industry.
