The film was produced by Lil Win and directed by Frank Fiifi Ghabin.

What set it apart from many local productions was its ambitious cross-border cast, bringing together well-known Nigerian actors including Ramsey Nouah, Charles Awurum and Victor Osuagwu alongside veteran Ghanaian actor Paa George and several other personalities.

The combination of talent from both countries generated considerable buzz around the project following its release, drawing attention to Lil Win's broader ambitions as a filmmaker.

Lil Win's push to take Ghanaian movies global

The Ethiopian Airlines partnership fits neatly into LilWin's long-stated goal of pushing Ghanaian film beyond the country's borders.

Having built his reputation over the years through Kumawood productions as an actor, comedian and filmmaker, he has increasingly channelled his energy into production and international outreach.

Securing a slot on an airline entertainment platform is a meaningful step in that direction.

Airline passengers represent a captive, diverse audience drawn from multiple countries, giving 'A Country Called Ghana' exposure it might not otherwise achieve through traditional distribution channels alone.
