Lessons from Lagos
In this insightful episode of The Screen Corner, host Zipho takes us on a vibrant journey to Lagos, Nigeria, where she attended the 2023 African International Film Festival (AFRIFF). With the buzz of Nollywood all around her, Zipho reflects on key lessons learned from one of Africa’s most dynamic film hubs—lessons she believes could ignite growth in the KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) film industry back home.
From the sheer scale and ambition of Nigerian productions to the entrepreneurial spirit of independent filmmakers, Zipho explores what makes Nollywood a continental powerhouse. She compares Nigeria’s confident ownership of its storytelling economy with the still-developing structures in KZN, offering honest reflections on what we can adopt, adapt, and innovate.
