IPAC launches audition for landmark documentary film

The Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC), a stalwart champion of democratic principles, on Friday, announced the launch of auditions for its landmark documentary film, ‘Movie Unbroken’.

The council noted that the initiative was to commemorate 25 years of uninterrupted democratic practice in Nigeria, solidifying its position as a pillar and gatekeeper of democratic values in the country.

Speaking at the launch in Abuja, National Chairman of IPAC, Yusuf Maman Dantalle, stressed the significance of the milestone, noting that Nigeria’s democracy, though not perfect, has advanced significantly from where it once was.

Dantalle noted that the documentary aims to reflect both local contents and promote Nigeria’s image and achievements internationally.

He said: “Unbroken two and half decades’ is one hundred percent pro-Nigeria and has been endorsed and approved by key stakeholders as a national mirror to reflect her positive narratives. This is unprecedented being the first of its kind in the history of Nigerian movies and therefore, considered an outright sell-out upon release into the global market.

“We are strategically promoting innovative conversations around our democratic journey in the last two and half decades using outstanding brands as symbolic images of public relations for national reorientation and rebranding.

“The movie, Unbroken, will enjoy massive online, outdoor and conventional media publicity before, during and after the shooting and debut on national and international distribution platforms.

“The behind-the-scenes would be reviewed by CNN, CNN, Netflix, Amazon, all national media networks, etc. It is expected to smash all-time records at the box office and as well trend massively online through notable entertainment super influencers.

“The auditioning which kick starts today IPAC has opened a vista of opportunities for creative Nigerians to showcase their talents while promoting the nation through this historic documentary.”

IPAC called on media, government bodies, private sector entities, and the general public to support the historic project.

He underscored the importance of Nigeria adopting similar strategies to project a positive narrative and foster national rebranding.
