About the Events
African women filmmakers are continuously making powerful statements through their creative efforts in film and television. These statements are remarkably changing film narratives and drawing global attention to the film industries in Nigeria and Africa at large. However, these women and their films are excluded from global film and screen studies programmes. At this virtual roundtable with three prestigious filmmakers, Kemi Adetiba, Omoni Oboli and Tope Oshin, we will discuss how women are dismantling historic barriers to filmmaking, crafting on-screen stories and shaping academic narratives about Nollywood, Africa’s largest film industry. The Zoom link will be circulated to registrants before the event.
