Actor-turned-director Tilda Swinton's new documentary, "The Hexagonal Hive and a Mouse in a Maze," collects ideas about neuroscience, education and the world of work, and creates a sensory collage that includes footage from Scotland, Bangladesh and Ghanaian filmmaker .
Anita, who recently curated a film screening to celebrate ace cinematographer, Rev. Chris Hesse, has been pivotal in the archiving of Ghanaian cinema and celluloid reels and what remains of it. She is deeply passionate about the mishandling of Ghana's history as captured on celluloid film and her own documentary, "Perished Diamonds," sheds light on this issue.
She is making significant strides in Ghana's film industry and has more projects in the pipeline.
Get in touch with Anita Afonu to learn more about her work, her vision for the film industry, and her insights through her writing.
