Shirley Frimpong-Manso, a prominent Ghanaian movie producer, has shared her insights on the state of the Ghanaian film industry.
According to her, the industry isn't dead, but rather, it lacks a support system. She believes that Ghanaians are skilled storytellers with talented actors and actresses, but the industry's growth is hindered by insufficient investment and infrastructure.
Frimpong-Manso cites the success of Nollywood as an example of what can be achieved with the right support and investment.
She notes that the Ghanaian film industry has the potential to thrive, but it needs a boost in investment and infrastructure to reach its full potential.
The lack of cinemas, inadequate funding, and limited government support are some of the challenges facing the industry.
