Two widely anticipated documentaries are being premiered on Monday 26th March at London’s Rich Mix Cinema in E1. Shot in Ghana, these films celebrate Ghana’s 50th anniversary of independence from British colonial rule by showcasing inspiring tales rarely heard in the UK.

A letter to Geldof features a town called Bisease, where Bob Geldof was crowned Chief of Development. The film explores the impact of his crowning and leads us to reflect on the meaning of promises and the role of celebrities.

Think Big showcases Ghanaians with big aspirations and big plans. Flash hotels, fab homes and full-on modernity are where it’s at; dependence makes Ghanaians sick. This film turns the usual pity fest on its head and showcases Ghanaians who are making it and making development happen.
