The first Nollywood film festival ever in South America started on November 18, 2011 in Sao Paulo, Brazil and the festival will run through December 4.
The event is called as the Bem-vindo a Nollywood Film Festival, which aims to introduce Nigerian films to Brazilian audiences and contributes to establishing the industry on the international stage.
Schedule of Events:
* A roundtable discussion featuring some of Nollywood’s most respected practitioners
* A retrospective of nine films by the award-winning director Tunde Kelani
And included in that showcase of Kelani's films will be his latest, which won't be released in Nigeria until February 2012. So, those attending this festival will get to see it before anyone else does.
