| + | Professor Jude Akudinobi, Chairman of the jury and a teacher of Black Studies at the University of California in Santa Barbara, described the 2008 exercise as challenging and rewarding. He said it opened up various angles to engage the diverse and creative energies that feed into the Nigerian film industry known as "Nollywood." He also said that the film festival showed quite clearly the potential and challenge of the next frontier of Nigerian filmmaking, especially the industry's relationship with the global cinema cultures given this year's festival theme," Film Without Boarders." | ||
