Actress, Debby Felix opined that more diverse stories are now coming out of Nollywood. She made this known in an interview with our source.

In our words, she said, 

“These days, Nollywood tells stories of things that truly occur in society. We also tell political stories, as well as things that go on in schools, streets and homes. Aside from the stories, there are also relatable themes. Slangs that people use online and in real life now make their ways to our movies, and that makes them more relatable. Producers and directors now put in more efforts to make our movies relatable to the Nigerian audience, both within and outside the country.”

When asked what differentiates Nollywood from other film industries in the world, Debby said, 

“In Nollywood, we are beginning to put in more efforts in cinematography and storytelling. More of our stories are now going on the big screens. The world is beginning to see and hear more of our stories. Before, characters in our films bore foreign names such as ‘Tracy’, ‘Debby’ and ‘Kelvin’. But now, we use Nigerian names such as ‘Ishaya’. We are selling our culture more than ever before.”

Debby Felix in the interview revealed that her new business venture is focused on fashion and interior decoration.
