Earlier, Yvonne Nelson stated in an interview that the much talked about movie “Beasts of No Nation,” doesn’t qualify to be nominated as a Ghanaian movie.

According to her, it is quite unfair to nominate the high budget movie alongside low budget Ghanaian movies.

“It’s not fair to all of us if they submit that movie because it is not a Ghanaian production. The fact that it was shot in Ghana doesn’t make it a Ghanaian production. So I won’t agree to that. If we are trying to promote our own, why will we go for a foreign production? You cannot compare a Hollywood production to a Ghanaian movie. The budgets are totally different,” she had said.
