Bobi Wine: The People’s President has won the IDA Award for Best Documentary Feature from the International Documentary Association.
The film is directed by Moses Bwayo and Christopher Sharp and tells the story of the titular Ugandan opposition leader, activist and musical star Bobi Wine, who used his music to fight the regime led by Yoweri Museveni, the person who led the country for 35 years.
Bobi Wine: The People’s President premiered at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival and has won audience awards at Hamptons International Film Festival and Independent Film Festival of Boston. It is nominated in three competitive categories at next month’s Cinema Eye Honors. Last year, Shaunak Sen’s All That Breathes won Best Feature Documentary at the IDA Awards and went on to earn an Oscar nomination.
