I NO BE NO TENANT!

Lucky Ejim and Jude Idada's first feature film THE TENANT is making waves everywhere that it has screened - in Canada, the United States, and it will soon open to enthusiastic audiences in Nigeria and across Africa. Self financed, self-produced, and self-distributed the film's success is an inspiration to us all, and a testament to the will, energy and determination of its makers.

Filmmaker Bobie Taffe produced this video profile of Lucky and Jude, the first in our Diasporic Voices series of Filmmaker Profiles made to promote the CaribbeanTales Youth Film Festival 2010.
