Ghana!

A country in West Africa is making cinemas which every Ghanaian should be proud of. Their cinema portrays the art of acceptance beautifully. With more than 150 feature films, they are showing self-reliance among the African people.

It is no more about being patronized for their art because of their social condition. In fact, after seeing the quality of these films, one could say that they will be able to compete with some of the big guys of the cinema industry worldwide in a few years.

This couldn’t have been possible without the exponential qualities that the actors possess. Some of them are already passing the Hollywood threshold and are seen on the silver screen.
