there is no doubt that Nigeria's Nollywood film industry is one of the biggest in the world,and one of its latest has actually been shot in Norfolk and Suffolk .the film Which is directed by a well known Teco Benson was shot last month at hill House ,in saxbingham nethergate,as well as locations in Framingham and worlingworth
It stars a cast of established nollywood veterans including Zack Orji and Chioma toplis as well as some local actors and Mrs macnicols seven years old son Morgan Angus.
Mrs macNicol who was born in Nigeria and grew up in Ghana,has previously acted in nollywood films ",who owns Da city and Jennifer" and ran a celebrity magazine in Africa. She moved to worlingworth,in Suffolk about five years ago with her husband Duncan macNicol said the east Anglican landscape helped inspire the film which focus on the life of a British and Nigeria Farmer and his family
And it set against a backdrop of different cultures
The beauty of sullfolk countryside when I first moved here years back is what influenced me said Mrs macNicol whose production company is called fantasy communication company said ,"we had two names for the film but we picked " just one blood" because the film is all about no matter where you go or where you are from,you should always think we are just one blood flowing in everyone's veins
There is no difference about being black or white,we are all the same
The film is in post production and Mrs macNicol hopes to release it early next year in Nigeria and in UK
Paul Andrew Goldsmith is one of the locally based actors in the film ,he said "it is exciting to have such production coming to Norfolk "he said. "Despite such culture and background,we can be united via one passion In this case film making even though some difficulties we encounter,we can say we are satisfied with nollywood and lot of quality films concludes Mr Paul
