About Me

My name is Lansana Mansaray, though most people know me as Barmmy Boy. I live in Freetown, Sierra Leone where I work as a filmmaker and musician producing media content for local and international organizations, youth groups and schools. My work focuses on helping people express their views and talk about issues impacting them in their communities. I believe that the media can give people a voice which can change their worlds and make real difference in their lives.
