Pastor Paul

PASTOR PAUL is a feature film about a white tourist in West Africa who is possessed by a ghost after acting in a Nollywood movie. PASTOR PAUL explores the remarkable confluence of New African Cinema, Christianity and Witchcraft; and undermines the classic symbolic imagery of the "white man in Africa," whether he be tourist, missionary, actor, or ghost. Filmed in Ghana and Nigeria in 2013 on a micro-budget, Pastor Paul was the result of a guerilla-style international co-production with Pidgen Films. Pastor Paul is the first American Nollywood film; an homage to the spirit - and the spirits - of Nollywood's self-determined narratives.
