Sparrow Studios, OldFilm Productions launch three movies for Ghana at 70
Dubbed ‘The 70 Slate: A Cinematic Celebration of Ghana at 70’, the three projects aim to attract diaspora engagement and tourism, position Ghana as a creative leader in Africa’s new cinematic era, and entertain Ghanaians both at home and abroad during the 70th anniversary commemoration.
The three films are The Return of Makunse, due for release in December 2026; Nkrumah’s Red, Gold and Green, which will hit the cinemas in July 2027; and a modern remake of Bob Cole’s I Told You So, which will be the last on the slate and is scheduled for release in December 2027.
The Return of Makunse explores migration, broken promises and the illusion of a better life in the diaspora, while Nkrumah’s Red, Gold and Green recounts the eve of Ghana’s independence.
