Netflix Director of Content for Africa, Ben Amadasun tells Vanessa Obioha in an interview the streamer’s commitment to spotlighting the various talents in the creative industry to a global audience while building a home for the best-in-class African stories
There was a lot of fanfare last year when Netflix announced plans to make Nigeria originals before the pandemic struck hard. What has and hasn’t changed since then?
Nothing has changed. Sure the pandemic did have an impact on film production on a global scale, but we at Netflix are still committed to the Nigerian film industry. We recognise that being part of the local creative community in Nigeria/Africa also comes with responsibilities, in particular the need to develop the talent pipeline and give new voices the chance to be heard. We will continue to develop and work with the industry on initiatives such as the post-production workshops, Realness Institute partnership for new scriptwriters.

è un fiotto la terra che lotta, sussulta, avviluppa. confonde
la terra che affonda, ti rende sua onda, presente a ogni lato
soffoca il fiato, ti afferra, collutta, si sbatte, si spacca, ti vuole
e combatti, chiede il contatto, ti attacca, ti abbatte. è fuoco
la terra del dopo risucchia di poco le crepe: la terra che trema
riempie memoria. ti stana, si affrange, ti strema, è padrona.

le visite inaspettate nella stessa notte, i ponti
caduti, le nuove scosse, i falò accesi. il pianto
le grida erano di un altrove sconosciuto
