There is no way that a ministry can cater for tourism, culture, and the arts industry, and I plead that we have a full Ministry of Creative Arts,\u201d Lilwin said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe state of the Ghana Film Industry is dire. I have sat back and watched keenly the semblance of a revival taking place in the industry and doff my hat to all the various actors and actresses, especially the Kumasi-based ones, for keeping the film industry alive,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>When asked what inspired the production of the \u2018Mr. President\u2019 movie, Lilwin stated that he wanted to invest in his own craft since the movie industry now lacks the funds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is time we kept the name of the movie in the limelight. You might wonder why it is so. It is because the movie itself explores the element of curiosity and how it shapes governance and human expectations, handles disappointments, and finds success in the pursuit of discovery,\u201d Lilwin said.<\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 2 -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lilwin \u00a0 Popular Ghanaian actor Kwadwo Nkansah, known in showbiz as Lilwin, has asserted that the Ghanaian movie industry is not as dead as is being perceived.
