Natasha Sinayobye News
Bala Bala Sese was, indeed a film to watch out for – an unimaginable love story between the village belle and boy about the rural.
It’s a simple story of Margaret (Natasha Sinayobye) and her sweet love John (Michael Kasaija) forging a way forward for their relationship even with the resistance of a malicious father hell-bent on marrying her off to someone else.
Directed by Bashir Lukyamuzi, the film premiered at Theatre La Bonita on Friday, in a glamorous event attended by actors, filmmakers and well-wishers.
The film boasts a very good picture – the cinematography was on point and the camera movements were well calculated. For instance, every time they had to pan, it was appropriately done and at the right time, something that many African filmmakers get wrong.
The film is crisply put together by Usama Mukwaya with a couple of punch-lines, funny quotes and serious banter that helps us go through the story with ease.
A love story for the biggest part of the film, Bala Bala Sese’s plot is that John wants to make money and wed Margaret. However, when Kasirivu (Raymond Rushabiro) loses village tycoon Zeus (Jabal Ddungu)’s goods worth millions, they decide to settle the matter like gentlemen.
Zues offers Kasirivu more cows and, in return, he gives him Margaret’s hand in marriage even before talking to her. We see the producers put together a message of love and the HIV/Aids virus beautifully, without making us sad and distressed by subjects that often arouse heart-rending emotions.
In fact, Aids or HIV was never mentioned anywhere in the film. The problem was that the story wasn’t really falling into place wholly. It seemed like some key events in the story just went missing or they never considered them important enough.
For instance, we expected to see John, the guy Margaret wanted to marry, fight for her love against Zeus, the guy her father wanted her to marry.
But in any way, even when we lost ourselves for some parts, the film somehow manages to find its direction because of the interesting lines and acting; Sinayobye was splendid when she lived the part of a naïve village belle whose dream in life was to own a pair of shoes!
She was convincing just like Rushabiro as her father. He was the best when it came to staying in character throughout the whole film.
“I tried to do something that would make Ugandans differentiate Raymond from Kasirivu and the result was the character,” he says.
Director Lukyamuzi notes that this being his very first project, he believes it’s just the baby steps and expects to learn from this experience for the work he will do going forward.
Even with some shortcomings, Bala Bala Sese could easily become one of the best deliveries in Uganda. Many viewers are likely to connect with the characters more than with any in many other local films, given that they are so real and they talk about things we know.
The story could have been all over the place but we saw ourselves, dreams and aspirations in some of the characters, and at times that’s all a filmmaker needs to get an audience.
