IMG-20160524-WA0002Zigoto is back! The ingenious Cameroonian filmmaker, whose ability to invent a new approach in cinematographically telling each of his stories has been great admired, has reappeared, after a break. His latest feature length fiction film, Calendar, is the biggest anxiety within film circles in Cameroon, as we write.

When it comes from Zigoto, I can press my fingers on the table to conjecture that it will be an impeccable production,” Praxedis, a Yaounde-based Cameroonian movie lover told TIPTOPSTARS soon after the wallpaper of the film went public. “I have watched all Zigoto’s films and each of them have impacted me differently and I’m convinced Calendar will be another masterpiece,” she went on.

According to the Yaounde-based filmmaker who doubles as film educator at the University of Yaounde I, Calendar, written by Nancy Kienyo seeks to celebrate differences in cultural values that give room for understanding and tolerance. It tells the story of Golda, an American woman, who goes through a three-week matrimonial drilling calendar in order to meet the approval of her Cameroonian husband’s family. Golda’s strength is highlighted in every context.

This high-action drama is a blend of Cameroonian, American, French and German actors who have decided to support the growing Cameroonian film industry,” the production team of Calendar writes in a press release sent to TIPTOPSTARS.

Featuring amongst others in the film, produced by Aime Dinayen Selamo, are Maryam Abdi, Leleity Keuzeubou, Esther Tsefoin, Ruth Akwi, Evi Jones, Cordella Ngonde, Bernard Wirsiy and Nelian Bame.

Shot on locations in Kribi, Ngambe Tikar, Yaounde and Bamenda, Calendar, directed by Zigoto Tchaya Tchameni, sees the light of day officially on July 31, 2016 during a red carpet premiere billed for Djeuga Palace in Yaounde.
