. It was directed by Irene Kulabako and produced by Media Focus on Africa’s (MFA).
Yat Madit is a story of a community that has gone through turbulent times and is forging a life again. It’s a true story about post-war Northern Uganda and how communities there are trying to live their lives again after Joseph Kony’s LRA war through resettlement of war returnees, ex-soldiers and civilians.
It aims to promote intercultural dialogue and demonstrate alternative ways of dealing with conflicts, leading to more social cohesion and sustainable peace among Ugandans especially those in post-conflict situations.
The title Yat Madit means ‘a big tree’; it is under this tree that the community meets to discuss and solve problems.
The series was set in a remote village in Kiboga, where the film crew settled for up to three months, delving into the life of what the people of northern Uganda have endured after 20 years of Joseph Kony’s Lord’s Resistance Army war. The series was produced by Media Focus on Africa’s (MFA) and European Union, directed by Irene Kulabako.
