Trailer
Everyone wishes them well
at the party but they won’t tell.
It looks just like two fellas
celebrating they’re gay.
But they’d trade souls for a time
when HIV’s not a crime,
where bills don’t say they should die
- but Uganda’s set in its ways.
This film’s stare is holding;
gripping shots of bold men
and women, revolting
against prejudice without folding.
Hey, I just met you,
and this sounds cuckoo
but take my advice:
See Call Me Kuchu.
It's tailor-made for
your brain to chew,
so eat some food-thought;
see Call Me Kuchu.
Hey, I just met you.
Want me to smooch you?
Then do what I say:
see Call Me Kuchu.
All the other films
may well amuse you,
but this doc's inspiring.
See Call Me Kuchu.
Malika Zouhali-Worrall
(Katherine Fairfax Wright as well)
direct this doc with a full
sense of what entertains.
They take their time to show
campaigners, people with no
fear of getting caught by those
who think it’s wrong to be gay.
All this human interest
makes for stirring protests.
Handheld cameras are best
at capturing the personal context.
Hey, I just met you,
and this sounds cuckoo,
but take my advice:
see Call Me Kuchu.
It's tailor-made for
your brain to chew,
so eat some food-thought;
see Call Me Kuchu.
Hey, I just met you.
Want me to smooch you?
Then do what I say:
see Call Me Kuchu.
All the other films
may well amuse you,
but this doc's inspiring.
See Call Me Kuchu!
It climaxes with loss of life,
it hits you so bad.
It hits you so bad.
It hits you so, so bad.
But we cut around the globe
as countries react;
the movie knows that
we need to see its impact.
It's hard to look right
at those who perscute you,
but bullies get a say too
in Call Me Kuchu.
There’s more hope here than you
think they’ll show you;
but while humans are bad,
they can be good too.
And all the other films
may well amuse you,
but this doc's inspiring.
See Call Me Kuchu.
