Fans Wowed At Premiere of ‘Who killed Uncle Atta’ Movie

Kumawood movies as much as have been loved and accepted by many have also been abhorred and criticized by a few others for either their story lines, scenes, actors role among others. For these reasons, many Ghanaians prefer to watch most foreign movies to these local movies whiles others are also calling on the Kumawood movie industry to improve so as to enable locales to patronize and accept these movies.

As part of plans to help improve upon these movies, Tigo launched the “Tigo Kumawood Premiere Experience”, earlier this year to outdoor new movies onto the market.

One of such movies, is one titled ‘Who killed Uncle Atta?’ which happnes to be one of the most controversial but educative movies on the local scene in recent times. It comes with a fine but touching story line which does not only depict a worrying social canker but try to unravel the controversial manner in which a man loved and respected by the people died mysteriously.

However, the death of this purchasing clerk, educationist and later a politician did not only shock the people who have benefited immensely from his generosity but also got them talking again and again as the cause of death remained a mystery.  Not withstanding this, few days after the death of the man, his second wife, and her newly born baby boy were sent packing from the matrimonial home, raising concerns over what caused his death.

The movie which stars some of the ‘gurus’ in the Kumawood movie industry such as, Kwadwo Nkansah Lil Win, Akwasi Boadi (Akrobeto), Kaakyire Kwame Appiah, Christiana Awuni and Kwadwo Opoku Mahala touches on some of the controversies, hard truths, and melancholic situations we often encounter in the society.

Thanks toTigo Ghana’s benevolence and readiness to support and help promote the Kumawood Movie Industry, 100 fans were selected to watch the movie for the first time at a special premiering event at the Miklin Hotel in Kumasi.
