My Father’s Shadow is the first Nigerian story to be selected by the UK for submission to the Oscars for Best International Feature.
To all Nigerians who watched it in theatres: thank you. As the first country in the world to show the film widely in cinemas, our theatrical run was the qualifying run for this submission.
My Father’s Shadow is still showing in theatres in Nigeria until Thursday 16 October, so make sure you catch it while you can.
