Support the Distribution of 'Nyam' Documentary

Introduction:

Hello, my name is Retji Dakum, and I am a filmmaker from Jos, Nigeria. I am incredibly grateful for the support I have received from my global community in bringing my first feature-length documentary, 'Nyam,' to life. Now, I am reaching out to you for assistance in the next phase of this transformative project.

About 'Nyam':

'Nyam' is a captivating documentary that follows my personal journey to rediscover the rich cultures of my Mupun heritage after spending most of my adulthood in America. Through this film, I aim to showcase the beauty, traditions, and stories that make up the fabric of the Mupun people.

Milestones and Reception:

Thanks to the unwavering support of my community, 'Nyam' has already achieved significant milestones. It has been screened at various film festivals across the United States and the African continent, where it received valuable feedback, awards and a heartwarming reception. The film resonated deeply with audiences, sparking conversations about African history, ancestry, identity, lineage, and purpose.

The Next Phase: Distribution and Marketing:

Now, we have entered the crucial distribution and marketing phase of the project. Our goal is to make 'Nyam' accessible on an online streaming platform, ensuring its reach extends far beyond the festival circuit. Additionally, we aim to take this documentary to educational institutions, where it can be screened and used as a tool for workshops on African history and cultural exploration.

How You Can Help:

Your generous donations will play a vital role in making the distribution and marketing of 'Nyam' a reality. The funds raised will cover the costs associated with securing online streaming platforms, organizing screenings at educational institutions, and conducting workshops to promote understanding and appreciation of African heritage.

By supporting 'Nyam,' you will contribute to the preservation and celebration of Mupun culture and help inspire a deeper understanding of African traditions and the importance of cultural identity.

Join our journey:

I invite you to be a part of this meaningful project by contributing to our GoFundMe campaign. Your support will not only empower me as a filmmaker but also foster cross-cultural understanding and appreciation on a global scale.

Together, let's make 'Nyam' reach audiences far and wide, ensuring its impact goes beyond the screen and into the hearts and minds of people eager to explore their own cultural heritage.

Thank you for your generosity and belief in the power of storytelling.

With gratitude,

Retji Dakum
