The ELFIKE Film
Collective, a partnership between EbonyLife Films, FilmOne Distribution,
Inkblot Productions and Koga Studios, is thrilled with the most recent
development for The Wedding Party 2: Destination Dubai – a nomination by the National Film Awards UK, in the ‘Best International Film’ category.
Winners of the award are decided by the public and fans are encouraged to vote by registering at www.nationalfilmawards.org/voting. The awards ceremony takes place on 28 March.
This
prestigious nomination is another indication of the international
appeal of the film and how well it has been received by audiences across
the globe. Of note are its successful cinema runs in Nigeria, the UK,
East Africa, South Africa and Liberia.
The National
Film Awards UK is an annual event organised by the National Film
Academy to laud the accomplishments of established and independent
filmmakers, actors, actresses, casting directors, production companies
and crew who make up the motion picture industry.
Mo Abudu, CEO, EbonyLife Films, is ecstatic about the nomination and the global recognition. “It
is humbling and exciting that The Wedding Party 2 has not only been
embraced by viewers the world over, but has earned such international
acclaim from a prestigious institute like the National Film Academy. The
nomination is further proof that original content, made in Africa for
the world, is viable and good enough for international commendation,” she said.
Moses
Babatope, COO of FilmOne Distribution echoes Abudu’s sentiments and
hopes the film bags the award. “Being nominated by the National Film
Academy in the UK is satisfying enough. However, it would be
mind-blowing and incredibly meaningful to win the award for ‘Best
International Film’. We encourage viewers who enjoyed it to vote online
and help us bring this award home,” he said.
