(Filmmaker in person)

This exciting and hope-filled documentary introduces us to Nigeria’s budding motion picture industry (now the world’s third largest with a production of 2400 films a year). Nollywood harkens back to the days of Hollywood’s silent picture boom. No need to learn the local language – these folks operate entirely in English (subtitles help with thick accents). Rejoice in how the movies can make the Third World a more prosperous one.
