Coal City Film Festival is taking Nollywood back to the classroom — and we did just that.
Our Nollywood Campus Storm activation was a powerful success, bringing real industry conversations.
One of our esteemed resource persons, Ofia Mbaka DGN, Nollywood director, shared practical industry experiences, breaking down the realities of filmmaking, discipline, structure, and what it truly takes to build a lasting career in Nollywood. This session left students both challenged and inspired.
Nollywood Campus Storm is our way of creating access, and encouraging excellence.
This special campus edition is part of the build-up to the 6th edition of the Coal City Film Festival, happening 26–28 March 2026, as we move toward a bigger, bolder future for Nollywood, Awka felt the impact.
