Ghanaian films not “low grade” - Country Manager of Silverbird Cinemas - Myjoyonline

The Country Manager of Silverbird Cinemas Ghana, Funmi Onuma, has rubbished the negative perception that Ghanaian films are of 'low grade' and not favourably competitive.

According to the country manager, who was speaking with Graphic Showbiz on the patronage of the cinemas after its reopening in July 2021, the erroneous perception has gained roots because of poor sponsorship and lack of investment in the film sector.

Funmi Onuma pointed out that the vibrancy of other film industries had been made possible by rich investments from governments and corporate entities and expressed a hope to witness same support for Ghanaian movie productions.

"It's never true that Ghanaian movies are of low quality or grade and the industry is dying. At least, the number of quality Ghanaian movies premiered at Silverbird Cinemas since the reopening of the cinemas in July last year is proof of that."

"However, what the industry is lacking is the right sponsorship and investment. There's no way a good script can be well interpreted without a good production and that comes with money. But here in Ghana, that support is not so strong and so film producers have no choice but to finance their projects with their own budget," she said.

Funmi Onuma said that she hopes the corporate institutions will see the need to invest in the film industry especially since the industry is showing lots of promise.

President Akufo-Addo announced the opening of cinemas in July last year but the cinemas, including Silverbird, started full operation and occupancy in March this year.

Movies premiered at Silverbird Cinemas since reopening include Aloe Vera, Coming to Africa, Drops of Happiness, Galamsey, God is African, Happy Surprise, Red Carpet, Savannah, Shemale, Terminus, The men we love, The Return of Jamal, Till Sunset, Fifty Fifty and Tito.

Ms Funmi Onuma mentioned The Men We Love, Happy Surprise and Red Carpet as the top three Ghanaian movies that premiered at Silverbird.

"These movies had huge patronage and if truly Ghanaian movies were of low grade, they wouldn't have recorded such high figures. Content wise, Ghanaian movies are changing, and the storylines are changing towards real-life issues that the public can relate to," she explained.

The Country Manager stated that Ghanaians need to believe and not condemn all the potentials the industry is showing.

The devastating effects of Covid-19 on various sectors of the economy cannot be overemphasised. With the creative industry being one of the worst hit, cinemas were not spared of its brazen effects.

Recounting the losses of Silverbird Cinemas, Ms Funmi Onuma disclosed that the cinema lost over $20M in value during the period.

She mentioned that the business is still on a recovery mode because the pandemic caused a major setback including having some of their equipment for operation locked up for many months.

"At one point, products were not even ready to be released onto the market because there were no workers to install the equipment. Most of our products are still in stock and are yet to be sold, causing the industry to suffer greatly," she noted.

Despite the pressing challenges, Funmi Onuma noted that Silverbird Cinemas was preparing to have a fruitful celebration of its 13 years of operation in Ghana.

"We are 13 years in Ghana by November so we have come a long way in supporting the industry to the best we can and hope for more collaborations in future. Again, we are looking at expanding to other locations which is in the pipeline," she said.

How to make your relationship stronger - Travel Daily News International

If you want to make your relationship stronger, here are a few things to keep in mind. First, be honest with one another. This includes communicating your feelings and concerns honestly and openly, without fear of rejection or retaliation. Second, be supportive of each other. This means being there for the good and bad times, listening attentively, and offering encouragement. Third, be considerate of each other's needs and desires irrespective of gender, no matter he/she is male, female and no matter he/she is trans. If you are in the last situation, doesn't use the term "shemale" to address a trans woman. It is a derogatory therm so use the pronouns she is confortable with.

What makes a strong relationship?People have different opinions on what makes a strong relationship. Some people might say that trust, communication, and common interests are key, while others might say that it's about respect, support, and being there for one another through thick and thin. No matter what your definition of a strong relationship is, there are some basic things that all healthy relationships have in common.

Trust: The foundation for a strong relationshipWe all desire trust in our relationships. It is the foundation that allows us to feel safe and secure. When we trust someone, we are willing to be vulnerable, to share our feelings and fears. We know that we will not be judged or abandoned. Trust is essential for intimacy and connection. It allows us to experience love and compassion.

Communication: The key to a strong relationshipCommunication is key in any relationship. It is the way we share our thoughts, feelings, and experiences with each other. When communication is clear and honest, it can help to strengthen the relationship. However, when communication is unclear or dishonest, it can lead to misunderstandings and conflict. By learning to communicate effectively, we can create a strong foundation for our relationship that will last long into the future.

Respect: A cornerstone of a strong relationshipRespect is one of the most important aspects of a relationship. It is what allows couples to have open communication and build trust. Without respect, partners can become easily frustrated with each other and the relationship may eventually fail. Respect means valuing your partner for who they are, hearing them out, and taking their feelings into consideration. It is also about being mindful of your own words and actions and treating your partner with courtesy and kindness. When respect is present in a relationship, both partners feel valued and loved.

Accountability: The glue that holds a strong relationship togetherIn any relationship, be it with a friend, family member, or significant other, accountability is key. When both parties are able to be open and honest about their actions and take responsibility for their part in the relationship, it builds a strong foundation that is less likely to crumble. Accountability allows for trust to grow, and when there is trust, communication becomes easier and arguments are less frequent. By taking accountability for our own actions, we show that we respect the other person enough to want to maintain the relationship. Ultimately, accountability is the glue that holds strong relationships together.

Marhakh – the killer in most of transgenders murder cases - The Nation

peshawar    –   Body of a transgender person lied in a pool of blood at a hospital in Peshawar, with no family member around the body since many such people flee their homes when they cannot find space there due to their gender.

Mano, who belonged to Malakand district, had been living in Peshawar with her community. She was shot dead and later buried in Peshawar, as the relatives did not take the body to their village. Her only mourners with her body were her trans community members.

Mano was reportedly killed by a Marhakh, a term meaning a boyfriend in the community, in Peshawar the other day.

A transgender person, Farzana, said that she fled her home in young age because she could not adjust with her family members.

"When there used to be some ceremony, my family would not take me there because they thought my behaviour was abnormal being a shemale. I could not socialise there. This is why I fled home and later took refuse with a guru," she said.

She said that a guru is an elder who takes care of transgender persons living with him. And in such kind of life, many transgender often become victims of bullets and murders.

Marhakh is mostly involved in the murder cases of transgender persons, according to those privy to the community.

Marhakh can be of two kinds: either he is rich and spends money on a trans person or he can be a poor person depending on the income that a transgender earns through music and dance programmes.

In most cases of murder, a Marhakh has killed a transgender when he sees that she has developed relations with another person, even after he (the killer) had spent money on her needs like makeup, food and others. The killer thinks he is doing the murder "for honour".

In other case when a Marhakh who consumes money from the income of a transgender person can also turn into a killer when he stops receiving money from her.

A female rights activist, wishing anonymity, told The Nation that most of the murder cases occur due to the attitude problem and sour relations between the transgenders and their boyfriends.

"Transgender community have their own language. When they speak, you may not understand their language. And this particular language is transferred orally; there is no book on the trans' language," she added.

She further said that even in the times of the kings, there were trans persons who had the same language they use today. "They use the term 'Marhakh' for boyfriend not just in Pashto but in other languages too. They call Rs100 note a 'Katka', for example," she elaborated.

Recently several transgender persons were shot in Mansehra, Peshawar and other districts and the boyfriends were involved in most of the cases.
