DOCUMENTARY

SUNDAY IN JAPAN

Sunday is a Ugandan man in his fifties. He has been an asylum-seeker in Japan for nearly 15 years. Leo, an exchange student from the UK moves in together and the idea for a documentary is born. Inspired by Wakaliwood, a Ugandan style of action movies, and together with the local Japanese community, they begin filming scenes born out of Sunday’s experiences in Japan. Faced with the constant threat of detention or deportation, and with no permission to work or travel, Sunday at first suggests ideas that reflect this harsh reality that he has lived with for over a decade.
