These tales could be used as ties that bind us as a society; playing a key role in the preservation of our culture and identity - she says.

While exploring Ugandan folklore and mythology to allow audiences to trance in the world of Ugandan fantasy, deities and mystical beings, Ijangolet’s work aspires to preserve folktales for future generations.
