At Filmhouse Group, we believe in the power of African stories and at Cannes 2025, we witnessed firsthand how those stories continue to capture the world’s imagination.
This year, FilmOne Entertainment proudly participated in Cannes, the platform designed to spotlight creatives within the global film ecosystem. Held during the renowned Cannes Film Festival, The Nollywood Conversations creates space for meaningful dialogue, global networking, and the elevation of African cinema on one of the world’s most prestigious stages.
Our team, with the Nigerian International Film & TV Summit (NIFS) led and engaged in strategic industry conversations, connected with international distributors, and supported the visibility of Nigerian film in a global context. With a robust slate of Nollywood titles, upcoming co-productions, and a growing network of international collaborators, FilmOne Entertainment continues to play a leading role in shaping the next chapter of African storytelling.
We were particularly proud to be part of panel discussions focused on opportunities to present our African stories for global screens areas where FilmOne Entertainment is deeply invested.
Cannes also provided the opportunity to explore new partnerships that will help bring African narratives to broader audiences and strengthen the pipeline from local talent to global screens.
Our presence at Cannes reaffirms our mission: to champion African voices, support local talent, and create opportunities that ensure African cinema not only thrives at home but leads on the world stage.
As the conversation around representation and access continues to evolve globally, Filmhouse Group remains committed to driving visibility, growth, and innovation for Nigerian and African cinema.
We are building more than films. We are building a legacy.
