Film village not a priority – Peter Sedufia on Mahama promise

In a recent interview, filmmaker Peter Sedufia critiqued presidential candidate John Dramani Mahama's proposed policies for Ghana's creative industry.

Sedufia argued that Mahama's focus on building a film village is misplaced, suggesting that such infrastructure isn't currently a priority.

He emphasized the need for more immediate support like exhibition centers, which are crucial for showcasing existing films.

Sedufia expressed skepticism about the practicality and financial feasibility of the proposed film village, suggesting that without sufficient demand and profitability in filmmaking, such investments could be wasteful.

Sedufia's comments reflect broader industry concerns over the relevance and timing of Mahama's creative arts policies.
