The film joins the list of other world-class productions streaming on the major platform since last week.
Before Amazon, the film has already been enjoying massive streaming success on the popular American streaming platform Tubi.
Producer Eunice Asiedu who is also an actress has said that she is hopeful the success of her film on these major platforms will chart a new course for Ghanaian films internationally.
“I’m encouraged to do more to put Ghana movies on the world stage. The aim is to put Ghana on the map,” she indicated.
She added that major opportunities are abound out there but the first step to attracting them is for local Ghanaian filmmakers to enliven the standard of their productions.
“Local filmmakers should aim at quality productions to get there. Government should also support the creative arts more,” she stated.
