Tangent
Nollywood has a rich history of storytelling, but its engagement with trilogies only surfaced recently. Traditionally, Nollywood filmmakers focus on quantity over quality to meet high demand. However, over the years, as the industry evolved and explored more complex narratives, trilogies and multi-part films have emerged to tell longer, more intricate stories.
This new highlight will not only expand the expanding portfolio of MultiChoice, the leading entertainment company in Africa but also showcase Nollywood’s potential to tell compelling, culturally rich stories.
In Summary
MultiChoice is yet to announce a release date for this highly anticipated trilogy, My Fairytale Wedding. We look forward to its first part.
