The ????????? ?????? ???? ???????? (NTFF) represents a unique vision that is strategically geared towards promoting films by Nigerians living across the globe to new and existing global audiences to create new marketplaces for Nigerian cinema. Over the last seven years, the NTFF has been held in cities such as Toronto, Atlanta, Hamburg, Athens, London, Berlin, Glasgow, Helsinki, Oslo, and Dublin. After the success of the festival in Athens last year, the Dutch city of Amsterdam (as well as the city of The Hague) are set to host Africa's most significant and foremost travel film festival in 2023. From Thursday October 5 until Saturday October 7 the festival will screen Nigerian films to the Dutch audience.
The festival will screen six films in three days at Melkweg Cinema in Amsterdam's city centre. The opening film is Love, Lust & Other Things (2023) directed by Kayode Kasum, and the closing film will be Eagle Wings (2021) by Papel Paul Apel. In between there will be screenings of Kamsi (2018), The Boy Who Never Falls (2018), Beckma (2022) and Sistá (2022). The festival will also include a workshop at the University of Amsterdam, a networking and cocktail evening, a celebrities hangout at Good Vibes Club Amsterdam, a closing awards gala in The Hague, and an afterparty at the Elite Event Center Amsterdam. The full festival program can be found on www.africadelic.com.
The founder of the Nollywood Travel Film Festival, Mykel Parish, is very pleased to host the festival in Amsterdam this year: “I am excited that we are hosting NTFF in the Netherlands. Amsterdam is one of the most vibrant cities in the world, with beautiful entertainment and lifestyle. There are a lot of opportunities for our delegates and we hope to build a good relationship with the film industry.” Eniola Ajayi, Nigeria’s Ambassador to The Netherlands also shared her enthusiasm about NTFF: “We are looking forward to the Nollywood Travel film festival in the Netherlands. It is always an honor, great privilege, and source of pride for us to participate in any program that showcases our culture, creativity, and diversity at the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Nigeria."
The Amsterdam edition of NTFF is organized in partnership with Amsterdam-based non-profit organisation Africadelic and the Embassy of Nigeria in The Netherlands. The Nigerian Embassy in The Netherlands will host the creative industry delegates on October 7 at the ambassador’s residence before their departure to Nigeria.
