It was never a deliberate decision to make films about the 'woman experience'.
I would describe myself as a filmmaker, period.
I prefer to discover new talent by holding open auditions.
Nollywood is a genre, and not the entire Nigerian film industry.
I was having tea with a guy I was introduced to, about the possibility of working with him at his production company. He asked me if I'd written anything, and I said yes. Then he said 'why don't you just shoot it'? And I thought, "duh!" Best advice I ever got.
There are a lot of filmmakers I love whose work doesn't inspire mine at all. For example: Quentin Tarantino. From his films you can see that he has a wicked sense of humour, and I love that!
