The iconic Deutsches Film museum Cinema in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, will host the world premiere of KARMA, a highly anticipated film produced by renowned cultural ambassador, Isaac Izoya.
In a statement by the organisers, the film’s premiere will take place on Aug. 8.
As the official opening night location of the Nollywood Film Festival Germany (NFFG) 2025, the cinema will provide an ideal backdrop for the film’s premiere.
Izoya, producer of the film and director of the festival, expressed his honour at premiering KARMA at such a historic and respected venue.
“This project represents one of the most powerful narratives of African storytelling in the Diaspora, brought to life by a dynamic cast and a compelling message that resonates worldwide.
“Karma is a powerful, feature-length drama that delves into themes of love, deception, justice, and redemption.
“Set against the backdrop of undocumented immigrant experiences, the film captures the emotional and moral dilemmas they face, ultimately celebrating the transformative power of truth and compassion,” he said.
According to the organisers, the film boasts an impressive ensemble cast from both Nollywood and Germany, including Alex Usifo, Ngozi Ezeonu, Sarian Martin Oruene, Isaac Izoya, Marie Cloos, Sophie Stelker, Chioma Akuezue, Melisa Ngongang, and Festus Ekhator, among others.
Directed by Henry Obidi and written by Oluwagbemiga Idahosa, Karma has already garnered interest from several major film festivals across Europe and South America.
The festival will culminate in the prestigious Nollywood Europe Golden Awards (NEGA), where outstanding achievements in African cinema and cultural promotion will be recognised.
The Nollywood Film Festival Germany is an annual cultural showcase dedicated to promoting Nigerian and African cinema, fostering cross-cultural exchange.
It also serves as an educational platform for both lovers of African heritage and second-generation Africans in the Diaspora.
