the nuances of Igbo Narrative Drama in Nollywood. Because the studies are important, relevant and significant in Nigerian Cinema, contemporary art of Igbo culture and history and African studies for both academic scholarship and public knowledge.
There is a study on "THE NUANCED FEMINISM IN GENEVIEVE NNAJI'S LIONHEART" by Uche Omar.
I have viewed the trailer of a new Nigerian drama in Igbo language with some dialogue in English sent to me from the UK.
From the intriguing and thrilling scenarios, I can tell that this would be one of the must see movies of the year in Nigeria.
A Chief Judge fails to mature from her experiences at a Covent as a murder case threatens to eclipse her.
I can see the genius of the director in the clips in the trailer.
The casting, acting by the accomplished actors, including the current most popular Nollywood actor at the cinemas in West Africa; the cinematography; sound; costume and makeup are impressive in the storytelling in motion picture comparable to the best dramas by accomplished filmmakers in the world.
I have been calling for Nigerian drama as good as the best Korean drama, English drama, American drama and Indian drama.
This Igbo drama most likely would be what I can call, "This is it!"
I have deliberately decided not to mention the names of the principal actors. The hint of the current most popular Nollywood actor in West Africa is enough for anyone who truly knows this outstanding actor of international repute.
This should be the best Igbo drama since Genevieve Nnaji's "Lionheart" released in 2018.
This one will attract more people in Nigeria and other countries, because crime thrillers pull more crowds to the cinemas and attract more viewers on TV and streaming channels, especially psychological drama with romance and intriguing characters.
The trailer is not yet available for public viewing.

NOLLYWOOD MIRROR® Series,
The first book series on Nollywood and the Nigerian film industry.
Celebrated Nollywood Diva, Mrs. Rita Dominic Anosike is an international star and winner of the Africa Movie Academy Awards (AMAA) for the Best Actress in a Leading Role in 2012.
Of all her Public photographs, this one is my favourite which I have decided to convert from ordinary photography to fine arts photography; a very big part of the film industry that is worth millions of dollars in Hollywood, but totally ignored in Nollywood.
Pop Art or Pop Photography of celebrity culture was the signature of Andy Warhol, the famous American artist and filmmaker whose monumental artwork, "Marilyn Diptych" created in 1962 is a silkscreen painting depicting legendary Hollywood sex symbol of the silver screen, Marilyn Monroe showing 50 of the same photograph with 25 in yellow colour and 25 in black and white colour which many people came up with different assumptions in their interpretation of the artwork. Each image of the actress is taken from the single publicity photograph of Marilyn from the film "Niagara" (1953).
Rita Dominic is not only one of e beauty queens of Nollywood, but one of the best actors in Nigeria and Africa. In celebration of her fame and accomplishments, I have made unique versions of her single photograph in fine arts photography and made the NFTs on the Algorand blockchain.

NFTs last longer than photos, videos and films that are not on the blockchain.
The NFT will be in the decentralized InterPlanetary File System.
Who is the new shining star to watch out for in Nollywood?
Uti Nwachukwu, the handsome unique style icon, TV personality, actor and the co-host of the Nigerian show Jara was the Shining Star to watch in the first edition of the NOLLYWOOD MIRROR® Series published in 2013. And he has become a true shining since then.
In 2023, the New Shining Star in Nollywood is a black and beautiful young actress who featured in an international award winning film.
Who is she?
You will see her in the third edition of the NOLLYWOOD MIRROR® Series. Definitely a collector's edition.

Rita Dominic: The Best Actress of the Year in 2021 in Nollywood
Rita Dominic as Anjola in "La Femme Anjola" by Mildred Okwo.
"La Femme Anjola" revolves around a stockbroker who fell in love with a mysterious woman. Anjola is married to a gangster who owns a nightclub where she does live performances.
Rita Dominic is one of the best actors not only in NIgeria, but the rest of Africa and the world. She is one of the few actors I know who can turn a bad screenplay into a masterpiece.
The cinematic experience of "La Femme Anjola" will be more romantic when dubbed in the French language and Spanish language. Mildred Okwo should have the theatrical release of the French language copy in French speaking countries and the Spanish language copy in Spanish speaking countries.
The subtleties in the storytelling and intricate cinematography made this unique romantic drama the most accomplished of all the movies produced by NIgerian filmmakers in 2021. The intellectual abilities of the director were shown in the artistry, imagery and poetry of "La Femme Anjola". It is going to become one of the classics of African cinema.
