In a remote lake of Uganda, girls who were getting pregnant before marriage were abandoned on the tiny island of Akampene, aka Punishment Island. Here most died, but some were saved by men in search of free brides. Laura Cini, an Italian filmmaker, went to the area on 2011 to look for survivors. The mission was successful and now she completed a hour documentary on the story which was supported by crowdfunders and the Italian Ministry of Culture. Premiering soon.

Last week, we organized a concert in Florence to contribute towards our goal to finance Comfort's artwork for the film. We raised 300 Euros. We are closed to our goal and we have 22 days left to support. Any details and contributions at this link: http://www.ulule.com/artwork-island/

28 days left to support the artwork by Comfort Abemigisha for the documentary. African art lovers, with a little contribution, you can help us go a long way. In exchange you will have prints of his work, and one day, they might have a certain value. For sure, he is a very talented African young man. Many thanks to those who would like to help. All contributions and further info at the link http://www.ulule.com/artwork-island/
Or you can write to us at punishmentisland@gmail.com if you would like to contribute, but you rather do it through paypal. That is possible. Thanks!

Thanks to our Early Birds!
We knew that this time it was going to be difficult, that's why we want to thank our first supporters on the crowdfunding for the Artwork, who gave us hope we may have a chance to raise the budget to finance the drawings for young Ugandan artist Comfort Abemigisha.
So many thanks to:
Carlo Boschi, Johannes Wilms, Sheila Windrige, Philine Von Dueszeln, Maria Pesli, Johannes Wilms and Antonella Bundu.
We still have one month and 600 Euros to raise. Have a look here http://www.ulule.com/artwork-island/ and remember that any small contribution counts. Thanks!
