Nollywood, Nigeria’s vibrant film industry, is setting its sights on achieving global recognition akin to the meteoric rise of Afrobeats. As the third-largest film industry in the world by number of films produced annually, Nollywood has long been a significant cultural force within Africa.

Jalade-Ekeinde, a member of the Academy, the Oscars awards voting body, emphasized the importance of portraying African realities. “We are telling our stories and defining how we want to be seen,” she said.
