Synopsis

Two Ugandan women, Monic Karungi and Kayla Birungi, died in Dubai in 2022 after falling from high-rise buildings, bringing renewed and devastating attention to the exploitative "Dubai Porta Potty" trend. The BBC's Africa Eye investigated the cases, revealing that the rumors surrounding Karungi's death hid an even darker reality of sexual exploitation and human trafficking.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 7

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
