Before Nollywood became a name synonymous with "Nigerian television", TV shows and programs were big items for Nigerians to tune to. However all that started to dwindle in 1992, with the release of Nollywood's first main product, Living in Bondage, which made people look at releasing home videos and what could be earned from it.

iFilm... THE MIRROR BOY (Trailer)
OH Films and The Nollywood Factory are gearing up to host what is said to be the biggest film premiere of an African film in the UK on February 24 (more details on this tomorrow) for Nigerian director Obi Emelonye's brand new film titled 'The Mirror Boy' starring two of Nollywood's finest actors - Genevieve Nnaji and Osita Iheme. The film set in Gambia also stars Gambian film star Fatima Jabbe and fast rising British young actor Edward Katuguzi. Read the director's synopsis of the film below and check out the trailer right underneath...
"Mirror Boy is an enthralling journey through Gambia, seen through the eyes of London-born 12 year old Tijan (Edward Kagutuzi). Getting involved in a street fight, in which a boy is hurt, his mother (Genevieve Nnaji) decides to take him to the Gambia to live with her sister. On their arrival in Banjul, Tijan encounters an apparition of a boy smiling at him in a mirror and vanishing. Seeing the same boy in a crowded street market the next day sets in motion a chain of events that culminates in him getting lost. While Tijan's panic-stricken mother struggles to find her son in an intriguing game of survival brinkmanship, Tijan is left alone in the company of the enigmatic Mirror Boy, who is only visible to him. A bruising spiritual rite of passage, Mirror Boy takes Tijan on a magical and mystical journey." - Obi Emelonye

iTrailer... NKIRU (Short Film)
This is the sheer visual quality with which Nigerian films should be made! If you can't bring this video and sound quality in your films then you really shouldn't bother! I Just peeped this (very short) trailer over at Gidilounge of a 2011 short film titled 'Nkiru', produced by Nkechi Bakare and directed by Bolaji Kekere-Ekun & 37th State Film Studios
"Nkiru 37thState releases a trailer for the first in a trilogy of short films set in Lagos, Nigeria. The story of NKIRU centers around a group of friends who go to the beach and disappear under mysterious circumstances. With stellar performances from all of its fresh up and coming cast, this supernatural thriller takes a modern look at a familiar myth in Nigerian and African society." - 37th StateKeep Tabs on Nkiru's Release Date: Website // Facebook // Twitter
