  • Portrayal of Women in Contemporary Nollywood Films: Isoken and King of Boys in Focus
    Portrayal of Women in Contemporary Nollywood Films: Isoken and King of Boys in Focus Emwinromwankhoe Osakpolor, University of Benin, [email protected] Volume 9. 1 (2021) | ISSN 2158-8724 (online) | DOI 10.5195/cinej.2021.299 | http://cinej.pitt.edu Abstract This study investigates the portrayal of women in contemporary Nollywood films, using Isoken (2017) and King of Boys (2018) as case studies. The objective was to highlight the various ways in which women in the films are portrayed to viewers and ascertain whether contemporary Nollywood movies are an improvement on the issues of gender stereotypes and sexism which are hitherto prevalent in the industry. Anchored on the cultivation theory, the study adopted the qualitative content analysis method. Findings showed that women in the studied films are negatively portrayed in various ways and that these portrayals are, at best, parallel to the stereotypical ways in which women were portrayed in previous Nollywood movies. Taking cognizance of the fact that both films are directed by women, the researcher recommends that Nollywood female directors should look beyond the lenses of financial gains and set a pace with regards to changing the narrative and portraying Nigerian women in a positive light.

It was a British colony which was amalgamated in 1914. The country became independent in 1962 and was right away bedeviled by military coups d’états and a bloody civil war (1967-1970). In 1999, the country experienced democratic dispensation. In the 1990s, the Nollywood nascent movie industry—following in the footpath of Hollywood and Bollywood—flourished. The movie industry grew thanks to four factors: Rapid urbanization; the hand-held video camera; the advent of satellite TV; and, the overseas migrations of Nigerians. Local languages are used in these films; however, English is the most prominent, along with Nigerian pidgin broken English. Many themes are treated in these films: tradition and customs, religion, witchcraft and sorcery, satire, urban and rural lives, wealth acquisition, consumerism, etc. I discuss the ways in which American popular culture is adopted in Nigeria and recreated on screen.

  • Jadesola Osiberu‟S Isoken: a Filmic Postulation for Feminism
    Studies in Media and Communication Vol. 7, No. 1; June 2019 ISSN: 2325-8071 E-ISSN: 2325-808X Published by Redfame Publishing URL: http://smc.redfame.com Jadesola Osiberu‟s Isoken: A Filmic Postulation for Feminism Charles Nwachukwu1, Onyebuchi Udochukwu Joel2 1Department of Mass Communication, Caleb University, Lagos, Nigeria 2Vice Chancellor‟s Office, Caleb University, Lagos. Nigeria Correspondence: Charles Nwachukwu, Department of Mass Communication, Caleb University, Lagos, Nigeria. Received: April 2, 2019 Accepted: April 28, 2019 Online Published: May 29, 2019 doi:10.11114/smc.v7i1.4306 URL: https://doi.org/10.11114/smc.v7i1.4306 Abstract While other media of mass communication such as Television, Radio and Print have to contend, largely, with the expectations of informing, educating and entertaining, film ascends over all these to find a niche in “expressing”. Film, therefore, can set out for the singular purpose of expression. This study intends to analytically expose those indicators and determinants of feminism locked in within the film content of Isoken, a 2017 Nollywood movie produced and directed by Jadesola Osiberu. These components should lend evidence to the central argument in this paper that this particular film displays a strong tendency towards feminist sentiments. The Feminism Theory is, aptly, adopted to buttress the standpoint here. A theoretical study, it utilizes the qualitative research approach, relying on personal analysis and interpretation of the film. It found that a good number of elements exist within the film content to suggest that ISOKEN leans sufficiently towards feminism. These include Isoken's defiance of communal and family values, the predominantly female cast as well as the brazen usurpation of certain privileged roles that the Nigeria society had hitherto reserved for men, amongst others.

  • Market Forces and Filmmakers: Building a National Image Through Production Quality
    MARKET FORCES AND FILMMAKERS: BUILDING A NATIONAL IMAGE THROUGH PRODUCTION QUALITY Ovunda Ihunwo Department of Theatre and Film studies University of Port Harcourt, Nigeria . Abstract The Nigerian Video Film Industry popularly known as Nollywood in the recent past has come under harsh criticism centred basically on modes of production, quality, and professionalism. This has affected our storytelling abilities and restricted them to occult, witchcraft and other stories that have to do with these vices thereby creating a wrong impression on the country’s image. These criticisms have however arisen as a result of the fact that directors of these films who are supposed to be the storytellers are faced with the commercial approach employed in such productions and most times do not have a say in what kind of production is churned out but must bow to market forces as dictated by the marketers. In what may seem a quick response to these negative reports, there has been a revolution in the industry with what is now termed as cinema ‘movies’ which have now turned out to be the viewers’ delight, a perfect example of which is the Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards (AMVCA). Film directors who have found themselves in this area are known to take their time in giving attention to details from pre-production to post-production, no matter how long it takes and then let their movies tour cinemas around the globe before they let it into the market. A comparative analysis of Kunle Afolayan’s The Figurine (2009) and Mac-Collins Chidebe’s He Lives in Me (2004) will be used to advance the need for attention to details in productions as a means of checking the quality of film productions, which will in turn help to launder the Nigerian image in terms of film production quality.
