Stephen Fry. British actor, writer and film & documentary maker
Kabalagala is a neighbourhood in Kampala, the capital and largest city in Uganda.
Kabalangala is also Kampala’s most deliciously sleazy bar district, portrayed by Italian
photojournalist Michele Sibiloni in an intense photo-book, F**ck It of streetwalkers,
good-time girls, vagabonds, pimps, drunken expats, drunken locals, drunken
everybody, underpaid guards, overworked bouncers, all kinds of cops, NGO workers
and back-alley exorcists.
The rich, pungent variety of colour images in this book will elicit a range of reactions:
pity, disgust, uncertainty, titillation; natural responses to such beautiful horrors.
