NEWTON ADUAKA' S SECOND FEATURE WINS TOP PRIZE AT FESTIVAL
Newton Aduaka C. 104 has won the top prize at FESPACO - the Pan-African Film Festival with his second feature "EZRA". "Ezra" tells of the experiences of one child soldier in an unnamed African conflict of the 1990s and is unwavering in its depiction of the brutality and perversions of war in Africa. Newton says "I don't shy away from violence. That's dishonest". "EZRA" will be screened in London later this year.
