Welcome to Nollywood plot

The Nigerian film industry, known as Nollywood, has grown tremendously in recent years. The films that Nollywood has produced are even more popular in West Africa than the films from Hollywood and Bollywood. All films are shot digitally and the recordings are always completed in a few days, after which the films are immediately marketed. Currently, Nollywood is the third largest film industry in the world with $286 million in revenue benefiting the Nigerian economy... and yet Nollywood is virtually unknown outside the African continent.
