Real-World Quidditch is Changing Lives in Uganda | Atlas Obscura

In Uganda, there’s one magical sport that has cast a spell on adults and children alike-Quidditch, the sport popularized in the popular Harry Potter book series. But here, the sport is more than just a game pulled from the pages of a book. It’s a sport that embraces inclusivity, welcoming all to a sport that’s reshaping how players see the world-and each other.
Watch the trailer above before its premiere at DOCNYC on November 9, 2023. You can buy tickets to see the short in-person in New York City or watch it online here. bit.ly/3SpA0zP
