Deep Trouble in Lake Victoria (2012)
Directed by Suzanne Nilsson, Bengt Löfgren
Documentary · 58m
With no maps, no civilization. African Lake Victoria, the cradle of mankind, need to be measured. Trade, maritime safety and tourism will flourish if provided with a new sea chart. One day Ola Oskarsson, receives a call from his former boss, ex navy commander Göran Frisk. Göran, now retired, work as a missionary in the Lake Victoria district. In essence Göran commands Ola to produce an updated version. A film where Swedish intentions turn into costly reflections of Western colonialism. A warm, humourous and optimistic film where the Western naive meets the African native.
