There was a media roundtable at IMAX cinema with Mr Kene Okwuosa(Managing Director of Filmhouse Cinemas) and Mr Moses Babatope( Executive Director of Filmhouse Cinemas). It began with the introduction of media personnel present at the meeting and a brief speech by Mr Kene. It could be dubbed a gathering for rubbing minds as everyone present at the meeting was given the opportunity to express themselves.
Mr Kene opened the ceremony by giving a brief background on Filmhouse and how it is different from Film One. He also talked us through their past projects, achievements and their future plans for Filmhouse Cinemas. At the meeting, Mr Kene opened up to the press that the upcoming filmmakers are not left out as there are plans of helping filmmakers achieve their dreams in the little way possible.
The Executive Director of Filmhouse Cinemas, Mr Moses Babatope added to what Mr Kene said by outlining their achievements and how hard they have worked to get to their current position. He also made us understand that indigenous films are not left out and should be promoted even. According to him, promoting indigenous films will help boost the economy and will also encourage people at the grassroots to visit the Cinemas. Here are some the pictures:
