Launching the  programme in Accra, Professor Linus Abraham, Rector of NAFTI said they  were being jointly organised with Goethe Institute (GI), a German  educational institute that deals with cultural, social and political  issues, to highlight the role of film and television in Ghana&#8217;s  socio-economic development.<br \/>\nHe said the lectures would be used to  showcase the literary works and movie productions of Kwaw Ansah, a  Ghanaian award-wining playwright. &#8220;Through daily viewing and discussions  on his films and researched paper presentations on his work, the  lectures would reflect on the filmmaker&#8217;s contribution to Ghanaian  cinema,&#8221; he added.<br \/>\nProf Abraham expressed the hope that the  lectures would provide alumni of NAFTI the opportunity to contribute  towards development of the institute .. Events slated for the week-long  lectures include film screening and discussion, researched paper  presentations and diner dance.<br \/>\nMrs Eleonore Sylla, Director of  GI, gave the assurance that the institute remained committed towards  forming partnership with NAFTI to give Ghanaian movie industry a  facelift.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Authorities of National Film and Television Institute (NAFTI) on Tuesday launched the first 2011 NAFTI Lectures to provide a platform for stakeholders in the Ghanaian movie industry to contribute towards its development.
