The FILM: JANANI - The Last Stand (2024) (Biopic | Drama | 90 min)
During the dark days of terror in the reign of Idi Amin Dada, most Ugandans lived in fear and dared not stand up against the dictator. And those who tried, disappeared, never to be seen again.
But one man single handedly stood up against this dictatorship and spoke
at every opportunity given to him even when people around him kept on
disappearing. His faith was the only required defence. With this, he went
places that no man dared go, and he earned his respect. Idi Amin was terrified
of him. His name was Archbishop Janani Luwum.
