\n\t\t\t\tGhanaian actress, Gloria Sarfo has expressed disgust at the absence of some stakeholders at the second edition of the Africa Cinema Summit held in Accra.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\tSpeaking in an interview with TV3, Gloria Sarfo described the situation as \u201cdisheartening\u201d for industry players not to be present at a summit geared towards fostering development of African movie industry.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\tShe admitted that although some actors and producers may be on set and shooting films, time could have been made for such an important occasion.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\u201cWe\u2019ve really learnt a lot. Like I said, it\u2019s all about Africa, projecting our local languages and also our cinema markets. It\u2019s really disheartening, I think it\u2019s a better word, to realize that most of our industry players were not here.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\u201cYou remember yesterday when Kule was talking, and he was asking where are your movie producers? Where are the actors? And it was so embarrassing that there was silence in the entire auditorium.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\u201cIt\u2019s possible that most of them maybe filming, maybe on set at the moment, but trust me, we could have also made some time for this, for the industry,\u201d she bemoaned.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tIdris Elba is currently in Ghana for the second edition of the Africa Cinema Summit, which begun on October 7 and will end on Thursday, October 10.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tThe summit being held at the Movenpick Ambassador Hotel in Accra was organized by the National Film Authority.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tThe second edition of the Africa Cinema Summit is aimed at fostering collaboration, innovation, and sustainable growth within the African cinema industry.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
