What's Up Africa-Sponsor a pirate - Ghana film industry
The popular RNW and BBC co-produced satirical series-What’s Up Africa’s Season 4 episode 2 is here—and it’s titled; Sponsor a Pirate-Ghana Film Industry..
Now you’ve probably seen the story of Princess Oyinbo (Pron Oyeebo) or Clare Edun (pron Eden), she’s the English former air hostess who speaks fluent pidgin and is appearing in the film ATN that premieres in Lagos on Friday.
Many who don’t get to see her performance in the movie theatre (silver screen) might decide to buy a pirate DVD copy. As we all know film piracy is rife – the World Bank estimates that for every legitimate copy of a film that’s sold NINE are pirated.
Producers say this damages the film industry and they need government help to stamp it out. What’s Up Africa’s Ikenna Akuize has found a unique solution to the producer’s problems through a new campaign in Ghana…
What’s Up Africa is broadcast on Wednesdays and Fridays on Focus on Africa on BBC World News & partner stations across Africa from 1730gmt.
