Special Screening - Nollywood Explored
Peace MissionDocumentary, 80 min Peace Mission is a vibrant guided tour through Nollywood, featuring Mrs Peace Aniyam-Fiberesima – a powerhouse in the Nigerian film industry, and an Ambassador of Nollywood. The founder and CEO of the African Movie Academy takes the audience to film locations, markets and celebrity hangouts in the pulsating film production hub, Lagos, and meets key personalities of the Nigerian film industry along the way. Versatile and full of energy, they all share the vision of making Nollywood a platform for the re-telling of African stories from an African point of view. The Nigerian film industry is the biggest in the world, producing some 1,400 films per year, and is Nigeria's second largest employer. Peace Aniyam-Fiberesima harbours the ambition to take Nollywood to the next level in terms of technical achievements, and proves in this film, in case anyone doubted it, that Africans can indeed do it for themselves. |
