The NDC has held a Press Conference to call President Nana Addo to order as the Party claims Nana Addo’s elephant size government is “clueless” and has led Ghana into “a lawless State of anarchy and chaos”.
The Press Conference held at the Party’s Headquarters in Accra was to address the NPP’s 6 months of Power.
Akosua Adoma Owusu’s film, Kwaku Ananse, which has won numerous international awards, is making its UK debut at the 57th BFI London Film Festival. Kwaku Ananse is one of four short films from Focus Features Africa First Program being shown at the festival this year.
Kwaku Ananse has received high praise and strong support around the world. It was included in the French Film Academy’s Golden Nights Panorama as part of the World’s Best Short Films category, and also received recognition at the Berlinale, Cannes and Toronto Film Festivals.
At its North American debut in Toronto, Kwaku Ananse was described as “a spellbinding, semi- autobiographical interpretation of a traditional Ghanaian folktale in which the contemporary collides with the mythological in both content and form.”
Owusu says she is “very humbled to be invited back” to the London Film Festival, and she’s excited to share her film with London audiences. Her short film Me Broni Ba (My White Baby) – a lyrical portrait of hair salons in Ghana – premiered at the Festival in 2009 and received recognition from several film festivals that same year.
