KAMPALA – The Uganda Film Festival (UFF) which aims at awarding outstanding film creations in the country, was held at the Uganda Institute of Information and Communications Technology (UICT) Nakawa on Friday, November 29.

The award gala was the culminating event of a week-long festival that was marked by several activities including film screenings, film exhibition market, workshops, and training among others.

Lailah was the biggest winner in the evening. A movie directed by Richard Mulindwa.

The movie scooped five awards including Best Director, People Choice Award, Best Post Production, Best Feature Film and Best Actor in a Feature Film.
