The reason big studios donβt take creative risks on films is because they donβt think audiences will watch them. Help us reach our goal so we can prove that there is an audience for culturally specific storytelling.

MMANWU is a film centered around Igbo culture and traditions, so weβd love to raise enough to dub the film in Igbo.
We have 3 DAYS left! Keep pushing!
We are 45% funded with only 16 DAYS left.
If we donβt reach our goal in 16 days, we donβt get any of the money.
Keeping donating, sharing and talking about MMANWU!
Letβs get this 2D horror short set in Nigeria made!!!
MMANWU is a passion project inspired by my personal experiences in Nigeria. I wanted to see more 2D animated projects centering African narratives and so I made one!

When a Nigerian-American teen returns to Nigeria for a family funeral, her mourning is interrupted when she suspects she's being followed. Mixing magical realism and horror/thriller, MMANWU explores themes of grief, spirituality and cross-cultural understanding

Weβre 17 backers away from 400, but I think we can make it to 500 backers today! πβ¨
Letβs prove that thereβs an audience for culturally specific storytelling.
According to the USC Annenberg inclusion initiative, across the 120 top animated movies released between 2007 and 2018, only 3% of the leads or co-leads were women of color.
Mmanwu is a short with a Black girl lead. Help us bring this project to life:
The world of Mmanwu feels so authentic because of all the reference photos and videos we had. I took this photo the last time I was in Nigeria and you can see how it inspired the BG in that shot.
@MmanwuFilm
reminds me of home wayy too much π the gate, the rusty iron sheets, the dusty road, the umbrella and the haphazard timber cover of the storm water drainage.
I love this because one of the pages in our pitch deck says "Mmanwu is culturally specific with universal themes." You don't have to be Nigerian-American to enjoy, or relate to, this story
I am not Nigerian, but the fact that the MC must content with her own identity between her two cultures is something that HITS HARD & RESONATES with me as a Chinese-American, & this aspect of life is I WANT TO SEE MORE OF IN MEDIA!
