Gaolatlhe Reuben Mogorosi

Author Filmmaker Founder, Ultra Studio Botswana

I am Gaolatlhe Reuben Mogorosi, an author and filmmaker based in Botswana. My work is driven by a passion for storytelling that bridges literature and cinema.

I write stories with the intention of bringing them to life on screen, blending emotional depth with visual storytelling. Through my projects, I aim to create narratives that resonate locally and globally, while building a unique voice in both the literary and film industries.

"Homegrown stories, told by the people who lived them, are more than enough."

Ultra Studio & Ultra Novels

🎬 Ultra Studio

Ultra Studio is a film production company founded by Gaolatlhe Reuben Mogorosi, built on the belief that the best stories — the ones worth putting on screen — begin on the page. Based in Ramotswa, Botswana, Ultra Studio is dedicated to adapting original novels and novellas into compelling visual narratives for local and global audiences.

📚 Ultra Novels

Ultra Novels is a brand under Ultra Studio focusing exclusively on books — digital novellas, short stories, and throwaway fiction. This is where stories begin. Every book published under Ultra Novels is written with adaptation in mind, creating a pipeline from page to screen that keeps creative control in Botswana hands.

"Ultra Studio is young, and so is this catalogue. What matters is that it starts. This is the beginning of something I have believed in for a long time — homegrown stories, told by the people who lived them, finding their way to screens around the world."
