Nollywood 3.0, Netflix and Neoliberal Economics

I am sharing this week, articles analyzing the above three interconnected issues: 

Who determines the Nigerian and African movies that get prime watch time? Which ones get to the cinema, how long are they shown for, and where? Why do some of the best movies made have such poor exposure to the public? That's Nollywood 3.0 for you. 

And As Netflix expands into the world beyond the West, why is Africa, and indeed Nigeria's vibrant movie scene being significantly left behind? What are the implications for the future of TV and movies in Africa? Here's to neoliberal economic calculations of Netflix and iRokoTV.

The story behind the Kenyan film that made it to Cannes this year, Rafiki, also shows how the problems of the movie industry in Africa are intricately linked with broader questions of poor vision, national leadership crises, funding, underdevelopment, and extraversion. How can African movie makers take control of their own industry? They are trying already, with little success in light of the monumental challenges. Here: <

In peace,
