Leaving for an African dream
Actor Idris Elba said he wants to open film studios in Tanzania and Ghana. What's inspiring him and many others to relocate to Africa?
Hollywood star Idris Elba recently announced he'll soon relocate to Africa and promote the film industry there. He spoke to 大象传媒 Africa's Thomas Naadi about it. The British actor is not alone: 大象传媒 Africa Eye's Nour Abida has been following the journeys of a group of second generation French nationals who want to move back to Senegal. Her documentary, The Homecoming, is available on the 大象传媒 World Service YouTube channel.
Produced by Alice Gioia and Hannah Dean.
