Kafui Danku-Pitcher
As Executive Secretary of the National Film Authority, I believe that film is not only a powerful cultural tool but also a critical economic pillar for Ghana’s development. Our vision is to create a thriving and resilient film ecosystem-one that empowers our creatives, attracts investment, and amplifies Ghanaian stories globally.
The National Film Dialogue provides a timely platform to engage deeply with stakeholders and collectively address longstanding industry challenges-be it in policy clarity, infrastructure gaps, funding limitations, or distribution bottlenecks. We are determined to implement strategic solutions, strengthen our regulatory framework, and build bridges across public and private sectors.
Let us reimagine the future of Ghanaian cinema-rooted in excellence, innovation, and inclusion. The time for action is now, and the NFA stands ready to lead that charge with our partners across the industry.

At the heart of Ghana’s film renaissance is a community of passionate creatives whose work deserves global attention and sustainable support. As Deputy Executive Secretary, I am committed to help shape an industry that is not only artistically vibrant but also economically viable and structurally sound.
Through this National Film Dialogue, we aim to listen, learn, and lead-by co-creating policy responses with stakeholders, promoting investment in local talent and technology, and advancing pathways for training, mentorship, and international collaboration. It is our mission to ensure that no voice is left behind as we chart a collective course forward.
Together, we can unlock the full potential of Ghana’s film sector and create a legacy that empowers the next generation of storytellers.
