Blitz Bazawule

Bazawule’s 2018 debut film, The Burial Of Kojo, has been described as an exceptional breakout piece for a first-timer.

The Burial became the first Ghanaian film to be streamed on Netflix last year. It is a mystical tale of family and loyalty.

After the success of that film, Bazawule, who is also a rapper, was contracted to direct two episodes of “Cherish the Day”, an African-American anthology series that premiered on the Oprah Winfrey Network in February 2020.
