In a significant achievement for Ghanaian cinema, the feature film 'Ego Reach We All' has earned two major awards at the esteemed Locarno Film Festival in Switzerland. The 105-minute drama, directed by Amartei Armar and produced by Yemoh Ike, is based on Armar's earlier award-winning short film 'Vagabonds'. The film won the Pardo for Change and Best Male Performance award for Idrissu Tontie Jr. The victory also prompted the producers to join the Leopard Club.
The festival, one of the world's leading platforms for international cinema, provided the perfect stage for the film to shine. 'Ego Reach We All' was shot entirely in Ghana, featuring a local cast and crew, and was completed in France. The film's journey to success includes winning the Cannes Focus CoPro Award and receiving support from various international development programmes.
The project's success reflects the collaboration between Ghanaian filmmakers and international partners while maintaining strong Ghanaian identity. The accolade highlights the strength of local talent and brings authentic Ghanaian stories to global audiences.
