My second Film Crossed Paths is inspired by a debate about abuse in marriage. A lot of people hear abuse and they think its only men who abuse women. I decided to write a story about a policeman abused by his wife, an orphan girl who struggles to provide for her younger sibling and how their paths cross in the most unlikely way. I notice how a lot of people cause bad things to happen to other people then walk away like they are not a part of the problem. This film also tackles the rise of goods and services in our country and how they affect people individually.



The Charade is my first attempt at film making. During a long summer holiday, I volunteered to work as a writer, director with a small television station in Cape Coast, Ghana. Cape Coast is recorded to have the largest number of Aids infected people in my country so i decided to make a short film about how a person can have Aids and still live a normal life. It isn't my best work but i am very proud of it because it achieved its purpose. After this short film run on television for a week, a great number of  locals diagnosed with HIV started  requesting for retro viral drugs at the hospital.
