Ghanaian actor and filmmaker Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as LilWin, has broken down in tears while recounting the challenges he faced during the production of his upcoming film, Nzulezu: A Journey to Africa, which features several Nollywood stars.
In a video shared online, LilWin described how the production encountered an unexpected setback after three days of shooting, when the Nigerian actors reportedly refused to return to the filming location because of concerns about travelling on water.
The production team had to travel by boat for approximately 40 minutes to reach Nzulezu, a community in Ghana’s Western Region known for its houses built on stilts above a lagoon. The location was central to the film’s storyline, which explores the community and its distinctive way of life.
