Filmmaker Izu Ojukwu announces “The Train from Kafanchan”

Ace Nigerian filmmaker, Izu Ojukwu has announced his return to the movie scene with his latest feature film titled ‘The Train from Kafanchan’.

The ’76’ director’s new project is reportedly set to be based on terrorism, taking on the style of his previous works like ‘Across the Niger’ as the plot details remain sketchy.

Starring Kanayo O Kanayo, Chiwetalu Agu, Segun Arinze, Rekiya Atta, the 2004 sequel explored the moral dilemmas of the civil war crisis as it bordered on tribalism.

Meanwhile Ojukwu’s award-winning war drama film ’76’ recently premiered on Netflix nearly five years after it premiered to critical reviews in November 2016.

While production details for ‘The Road from Kafanchan’ remain sketchy, auditions have been confirmed for this October in Lagos and Abuja.
