EDDIE NARTEY WINS PEOPLE’S CHOICE AWARDS AT BLACK STAR INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL

Eddie Nartey, an actor and producer, has expressed his elation following the success of his film, “Saving Chris,” which clinched The People’s Choice Award at the Black Star International Film Festival.

During an exclusive interview, Mr Nartey conveyed his initial sense of disbelief upon receiving the news and shared his immense joy at the acknowledgement of the creative efforts of the young talents associated with EN ACADEMY, the production entity behind the film.

“I didn’t believe it when I was told I had won,” he confessed, explaining that he received the incredible news right at the festival’s entrance due to being caught in Accra’s notorious traffic. “I was happy, especially for the fact that the works of young talents from EN ACADEMY are being recognized by the world.”

“Saving Chris” struck a chord with the festival audience, resonating deeply with viewers due to its poignant exploration of the misuse of drugs among the youth and its devastating consequences.

Nonetheless, the renowned producer emphasized that the film’s subject matter addresses a pressing issue, saying, “We can all testify to the high rate of drug abuse among the youth in Accra and Ghana at large. Having a movie with such a relevant and relatable subject matter in society is what I think contributed to its success. I also believe that the actors carried their various roles impressively well, considering that most of them are up and coming.

The film’s journey began when Nartey was introduced to the script by writer Thomas Mawuli Tamakloe.
