Lack of funds killed Ng’weno's dream to boost film industry


Ng’weno drafted me from the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting's film production department, into his Stellagraphics Ltd. Apart from the documentaries, Stellagraphics was also to produce about three 13-episode drama series on health issues for television. He came back from film studies in the USA with a 16mm film camera and a 16mm flatbed film editing deck with which he produced several programmes for VOK television. Faced with the high cost of film production, he wrote proposals seeking funds to set up a facility to manufacture celluloid film stock - both 16mm and 35mm - locally. This was a clear demonstration of his commitment and vision of an indigenous Kenyan film industry.
