You Are Invited!
iREP Celebrates Legendary
Pioneer in the Nigerian Feature Film Industry.
DATE: Friday, 3rd July, 2015.
VENUE: Freedom Park, Hospital Road, Broad Street, Lagos.
TIME: 3pm Prompt.
You might have heard about
the film adaptation of Wole Soyinka's Kongi's Harvest or Chinua Achebe's Things
Fall Apart. The producer of those films was Francis Oladele. Sadly, not so many
people (including filmmakers) know about the works of this legendary filmmaker.
Francis Adetunji Oladele,
passed on in the early hours of June 22, 2015 at an Ibadan hospital, after a
brave battle with prostate cancer, he will be buried on Wednesday, July 1, 2015
at his premises in Oyo Town. His contribution to the Nigerian Film Industry is
of no mean measure, and the iREP Film Forum will bring filmmakers, colleagues
and contemporaries of Francis Oladele, art aficionados, writers, film students,
etc. together to celebrate the works and contributions of Francis Oladele to
the film industry.
You must make a plan to
attend.
Warm Regards,
The iREP Team.
