Saw this article online lol..


In 2010, Sierra Leone producer and
director Jimmy Bangura had this to say
about the Sierra Leonean movie
industry: “In few years, people won’t be
talking about Hollywood, Bollywood or
Nollywood. People will be talking about Sollywood
in Sierra Leone”. The experienced film maker has
successfully produced and directed a few
movies that have been screened on
Africa’s popular television stations like
DSTV and MNET. His films have also been
screened on Sky Television. He was also at one
time reported to have lured A-List
Nollywood actor Ramsey Nouah to
partake in a Sollywood movie. He has
also reached out to other African
countries’ film stars to help grow
Sollywood, casting them in roles in his films.
Also for a long while now, there have
been questions raised about why the
South African film industry has not join
the big movie-making business with
their own South African stories and movie
industry. But finally in the same year 2010, Actor
and Director Tiro Venter and producer)
Inda Khumalo, decided to take on the
challenge. They succeeded in making a
huge budget movie. To avoid piracy, the
movie was available exclusively at
www.sollywood.co.za , Hence the
creation and registration of South
Africa’s Sollywood.
Since then not much has been heard of
both film industries, and non has been
able to meet or measure up to the standards of
Nigeria's Nollywood nor
Ghana’s Ghollywood. But the question
remains which of these is recognized as
the legitimate Sollywood
internationally? Jimmy Bangura, Sierra Leonean
Producer Tiro Venter, South African Producer.
