Off the success of the just released movie adaptation of her novel Half of a Yellow Sun,Nigerian Author Ngozi Chimamanda Adichie is soon to see her most recent novel Americanah come to life on screen with the likes of Oscar winner Lupita Nyong'o and Producer Brad Pitt. Lupita Nyong'o will reunite with the producer who helped make her a star, Brad Pitt, on a tale of lovelorn Nigerian migrants, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Nyong'o, who won the best supporting actress prize in March for her turn in Steve McQueen's 12 Years a Slave, is set for a lead role in Americanah. The film, based on Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's prize-winning novel, will be produced by Pitt under his Plan B banner. "It is such an honour to have the opportunity to bring Ms Adichie's brilliant book to the screen," Nyong'o said. "Page after page, I was struck by Ifemelu and Obinze's stories, whose experiences as African immigrants are so specific and also so imminently relatable. It is a thrilling challenge to tell a truly international story so full of love, humour and heart." Americanah centres on two young Nigerians, Ifemelu and Obinze, who are separated after falling in love. Determined to leave a nation riven by military dictatorship, Ifemelu secures a place at an American university. Obinze is unable to secure a visa for a country suffering the aftermath of 9/11 and instead suffers as an undocumented immigrant in London.

LONELINESS I am sinking, sinking into quicksand In the depths of lonely land With frightened, terrified eyes I look around But there is no one to be found I am scared, at my wits end As far as I can see, no friend The more I try to pull myself up free The more it sucks me in chest deep But wait, I see faces like a glimmer of hope Coming to my aid like a saving rope I hold on, clinging to it for my dear life But it disappears cutting my heart like a knife I am disappointed at them I begin to say But my mouth is filled with the sands of dismay Realization strikes me I’m all alone No one by me, on my own I choke on a sob feeling helpless As the last grains of sand burn my eyes and I am buried in loneliness |

Since the inception of film-making in Nigeria 15 years ago, the world has been waiting for one Nollywood film that stands apart from the rest, one that will capture the minds and hearts of movie-goers worldwide, one that will leave a timeless memory, capable of illustrating the creativity, tradition, and essence of Nigerian culture. IJE is that movie. Typically, Nollywood movies neglect the way films should be made by ignoring production value, focusing instead on famous actors and actresses. IJE which means “the journey” in the Nigerian language Igbo, will undeniably revolutionize the way Nigerian movies are viewed and created, as it is the first Nollywood film to include features common to Hollywood movies. Unprecedented in scope, IJE tells a tale of Chioma, a child growing up in the Nigerian countryside, who warned her restless sister, Anya, about the trappings of the American Dream. Now ten years later, Anya is accused of killing three men in a Hollywood Hills mansion—one of them her record producer-husband. Chioma travels from Nigeria to Los Angeles, and with the help of a young, unproven attorney, discovers that the dark secret her sister wants to keep hidden might be the only thing that can win her freedom. A majority of the film was shot in the U.S. on 35mm, but it has flash back scenes that were shot on location in Jos, Nigeria. Directed and produced by Nigerian Born Chineze Anyaene, “IJE” is a compelling drama with organic twists and turns. Anyaene is the youngest female director, and the first woman to film 35mm in Nollywood. Also produced by Paula Moreno, one of the first Producers in L.A. to take on the challenge of filming a Nollywood feature, the film boasts of an internationally diverse cast, such as Nigerian A-lister’s Genevieve Nnaji, who was recently profiled by Oprah Winfrey as one of the most famous people in the world, Nigeria’s sweetheart Omotola Ekeinde, and critically acclaimed actor Clem Ohameze. Hispanic sensation Odalys Garcia and upcoming actor Ulrich Que join the brilliant cast, a component that makes the film widely appealing to international audiences. Anyaene and Moreno, two trailblazing minority women, are determined to make a change in the international movie industry by merging the Hollywood and Nollywood industries. IJE: THE JOURNEY is set for an exclusive screening at Warner Bros. on November 14, 2009 in Burbank, CA.
