Book Presentation:
Film in Nigeria is an exceptional work on the scholarship of film in Nigeria and the Nigerian film. Each of the ten chapters sizes up the different context of film production in Nigeria, and they cohere to provide rare information on the making of Nigerian cinema since the colonial times. The value of this work lies in its establishment of a dynamic groundwork for the analysis and appreciation of the contexts in which films are produced and consumed in Nigeria, and in particular the Nigerian film. There is hardly any book on the subject with the rare insights of this book. Film in Nigeria will surely find its place in courses on African Film Studies, Mass Communications, Theatre Art Studies, Popular Culture, Policy Studies and to those interested or involved in film appreciation and production in Nigeria.
