***Call 112*** is a 2025 [Ugandan film](/source/Ugandan_film) directed by [Usama Mukwaya](/source/Usama_Mukwaya)[1] starring [Mariam Ndagire](/source/Mariam_Ndagire)[2][3] Blair Koono and Kenny Rukundo in leading roles.[4] The short film produced by O Studios Entertainment with support from [Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS) Uganda and South Sudan](/source/Konrad_Adenauer_Foundation),[5][6] is set during a heated parliamentary election campaign in the fictional Kebambe West constituency. It premiered on 30 April 2025 in Kampala.[7][8][9]

## Plot

James, a cash-strapped university student and TikTok influencer, lands a lucrative gig exposing the secrets of Teopista Ndyanabo, a prominent woman MP, on behalf of the enigmatic Albert. As Teopista faces intense scrutiny while seeking re-election as MP for Kebambe West, a massive disinformation campaign unleashes false rumors about her family, including the paternity of her children. However, as James becomes entangled in the scandal, he realizes too late that he's in over his head.

## Awareness Campaign

As part of the film’s premiere, a campaign titled Love Facts was launched—an engaging, holistic, and humorous pro-debunking initiative designed to spark a movement among young people that embraces facts through fun, food, and creativity. Speaking at the event, Anna Reismann, Country Representative for KAS Uganda and South Sudan, noted that the film illustrated how disinformation spreads in the digital age. She emphasized that influencers have become major sources of information for youth, but are increasingly being targeted by those seeking to fuel conflict and sow chaos.[10][11][12]
