Mo Abudu, CEO, EbonyLife Films, is ecstatic about the nomination and the global recognition. “It is humbling and exciting that The Wedding Party 2 has not only been embraced by viewers the world over, but has earned such international acclaim from a prestigious institute like the National Film Academy. The nomination is further proof that original content, made in Africa for the world, is viable and good enough for international commendation,” she said.
Moses Babatope, COO of FilmOne Distribution echoes Abudu’s sentiments and hopes the film bags the award. “Being nominated by the National Film Academy in the UK is satisfying enough. However, it would be mind-blowing and incredibly meaningful to win the award for ‘Best International Film’. We encourage viewers who enjoyed it to vote online and help us bring this award home,” he said.
